    Need help choosing a color. The Options i have drawn down to are:
    Regular Katzkin leather options
    1 Dark Graphite, matches darker parts of interior
    2 Ice Grey, matches the stock seat color

    Tuscany Katzkin Leather options
    3 Tuscany Midnight Black (used another pic that is close)
    4 Tuscany Storm, Matches close to steering wheel and shift knob

    I will be ordering a matching center console cover as well
    I will also be leaving the plastic seat sides stock (will not be painting anything)

    I would go with what matches the current seats or the majority of the interior color.

    I went with dark graphite surround with the ice grey center. Gives it a nice two tone look. And I broke it up a bit with some red contrast stitching. It looks superb :)

    I like my 2 tone leather. I can't remember what color grey I have, the installer picked it out with me to match the plastic. Grey body with dark graphite inserts.

    Prices will vary from installers. You can save a lot of money if you can do it yourself, there is a write-up somewhere on this forum.

    I have leather in the front and vinyl in the rear, which is Katzkin's "deluxe" kit I think. I paid $1100 with seat heaters in the front.

    I have full leather seats on mine. The more expensive Katzskin kit. And it came to $1200.00 CAN with 4 seat heaters, two tone leather, contrast stiching, and embroidery.

    Check out the group buy forum for a good deal.

    So I have decided. I'm going midnight with extra material for center console and shifter boot to match. I seen a truck with grey at the dealer that had less than 200 miles on it and was already dirty from jeans. So I'm going all dark on the seats.

    FWIW, the second picture in your OP are my seats, and they are tan, not gray.

    Match the rest of the inside of the truck. A few of those look like crap.
