KATZKIN LEATHER for your Tacoma

Some Awesome Install Pics!
Thank you for posting...

Things are beginning to return to normal with Shipping times.
You can now expect to have these in 2 weeks for a Custom Order.
Katzkin has opened up an additional manufacturing plant and while doing so led to uncertain lead times.
Please PM me directly with any questions or quotes you may need answered.
Thank you again for your continued support on this thread!

Got mine on over the weekend. Listen to the pain warnings for your fingers, lol but they are so worth it.

 

Nice!! What color you get and how long did it take you?

 

I got walnut. The color isn't really well represented in the pic, it's more like peanut butter in person. 2 weeks from when I placed the order, another week to ship thanks to fedex for delaying the package.

 

color looks great man, congrats

 

Shipping tomorrow!
Thank you SK

To anyone who has purchased these; were the headrest guides cut in the covers or did you have to cut them out yourself?

 

You have to cut them out yourself.

 

Ditto^^ I cut the fabric off the headrest.

On a side note, what are most folks using to treat or protect the leather?

 

Can anyone that's installed the degreez units chime in?

Do I cut off the leather seat tab for the bottom cushion or trim the distribution pad?

 

These are on their way to me! Thanks, John! @jhuey8947

 

I plan to get a set of these for my Taco, and a have question.

I would like to replace the seat foam when I install the covers. Where can I get new seat foam? Is it available from Toyota, or will I need to get some raw material and cut it myself?

My truck is 6 years old (SR5 model), and the seats (at least the driver's) have become less than comfortable.

Any thoughts/ideas/suggestions welcome.

Thanks!

 

I would first start with eBay. If not I would then suggest the Dealership. To my knowledge no one is making these aftermarket.

Finally done. I took my sweet, sweet time.

 

Very nice install.
Thank you SA for posting!

 

Thanks, John! They are perfect! I love them so much more than the cloth. This should’ve been an option for the access cabs! My husband said the truck looks so much nicer and looks more like a PRO instead of the OR.

If anyone is interested, and I didn’t miss the page, I have pics and write up for the 3rd gen access cab on how I did mine. John gave me some direction on those rear panels and I put my own spin on it. I also used the guidance from the 2nd gen write up.

I will say I had to go with a different set of hog ring pliers (sorry John!) and it went well and quickly once I got the hang of it. I went with these in the link below and they were awesome!! They are also available at Amazon, Walmart and pretty much any farm supply store.

My original plan was to do this near the end of the year. But after looking through this thread an all the pictures I'm going to have to pull the trigger on this a lot sooner...as in...as soon as possible. Thanks TW!

 

PM me directly if you have any questions or for quote. Look forward to working with you all.

Sent you one a little over a week ago

 

I *love* my Katzkins and the Degreez coolers, especially with the mod I figured out.

Every time I get in it's:
1. Start truck
2. Turn on seat coolers
