FRS Leather Seats
 
Does anyone know where I can get a set of quality leather seats for my FRS? Any information would be greatly appreciated.

I know the BRZ Limited comes with or is supposed to come with leater seats so maybe try a subaru dealership? If not you can get Clazzio genuine leather seat covers for much less than leather seats would cost.

Ok thanks, i'll try them

One of the best is Katzkins.

I have Katzkins and I like it a lot. I'm not too knowledgeable about other brands though... The dealership had it installed for me by a shop in Kirkland.

Katskin and Auto Trim in Tukwila for install.

detainu 01-03-2013 11:57 PM

Ok thanks, i'll contact them. Do you know how much?

Clint520 01-04-2013 02:12 AM

Cost $1200 w/o tax. Can be a little more depending on the extras/options you decide to go with.

detainu 01-04-2013 02:22 AM

Ok, i'll contact them. I saw a girl at one of the meets with leather and her car looked great with it. I'd like to do that to my car

Any cheaper places in seattle?

detainu 01-07-2013 10:43 PM

What were you thinking for $?

detainu 01-07-2013 10:44 PM

You are quite welcome Banzai!

Touge_ninja 01-07-2013 10:49 PM

750ish. I just want the factory seats redone in leather.

pumice 01-08-2013 11:16 PM

Check out Canada Seat Skins. They were running a promotion for the FRS and I was able to get set of Katzkins from them for about $700. Quality is excellent.

31katys 01-08-2013 11:48 PM

I wouldn't want to go cheap on interior... have you seen bad interior?? I'd rather have stock cloth than bad leather. Just my .02

Has anyone tried installing the following JDM seat covers or had experience with this vendor? Can they be self installed or do they need to be taken to an upholstery shop?

http://www.nigel-jdmparts.com/japan-...her-seat-cover

I chatted with the guy who runs the site and he says they are official JDM toyota seat covers. I also got clarification on the "pre-order" status on that page. He says that it is actually special order, ordered directly from japan once you place an order. I ordered a set last week, ETA ~8 weeks.

AVOturboworld 01-14-2013 01:50 PM

Those might be like the DAMD seat covers that I test fitted for an Outback a while back. In which case you could install them, they basically slip over the cloth seats.

http://legacygt.com/forums/attachmen...3&d=1347844151

In this Outback's case, keep in mind these didn't fit just right because they were designed for the leather seats (which doesn't make sense, pleather seat covers for leather seats...). But basically, they are "fitted" seat covers that tie down or velcro together.

If you read the bottom it says " polyurethane + Material: Polyester" Do these have any real leather in them or are they Pleather?

How much do you want for yours? I would have Fr-S interior to go with cash.

oh god those seats look awful. they're like bus seats rather than a sports car seats.

AVOturboworld 01-14-2013 03:24 PM

It's an Outback, the seats *are* more like bus seats than sport seats. ;)

Yes, I did read the description. It is pretty incomprehensible, but I did confirm with them that they are in fact the OEM JDM leather/alcantara seat covers.
