Anyone have any experience, good or bad, with the various vendors online (Lseat, sweatshop). Going rate for front leather replacements is $300. Claim is custom fit.

I need something before I wear away the foam.

 

These guys make extremely nice gear but not cheap. Also this is a seat cover option

Definitely something to consider.
Thanks!

 

I had a local shop re-do the seat bottoms. It worked out well. Good match to the seat backs which are in fine shape.

 

My driver's seatback is in need if replacing also.

 

I would stay away from Lseat. I do car interior restoration for a living, and I ordered a Lexus set from Lseat one time when I was in a pinch and the customer didn't want to wait. It was ugly....order took 5 weeks to arrive with zero communication from Lseat (and if you call them you won't get an answer), and when the covers arrived, the leather was super low-quality and all the attachment points were either off or incorrect. I ended up having to do a ton of sewing and adjusting just to make their covers fit.

From a quality and fit standpoint, I think exmoor would do a tremendous job, but they don't always have the same patterns as the original leather. https://www.exmoortrim.co.uk/our-mod...?submodel=1842

 

Yea, i'd say those seats are shot. Why not have them re upholstered in cloth? Wouldn't cost nearly as much and would probably look pretty decent.

 

Looks like you were running a half way house for Badgers in there

 

I've heard good things about these seat covers from Cabela's. They're only $19 each. Thinking of trying them out myself since my current seat covers have seen better days.

Agreed.
They weren't torn when I got the truck. However, they were dry-rotted and as a man of a certain size.... well that's what happens.

Thanks all for the advice. Leaning toward Knights Bridge covers but I'm trying to get to a local upholstery shop so they can look at them before I pull the trigger.
