2012 Katzkin Leather Group Buy

sub'd is this still going on? wondering if you guys are liking these over the wet okole's?

 

Bump

Am I the only one interested in a matching console cover?

The center console on my last Tacoma (1999) cracked from use - e.g. sun, sweat, dirt, body oils, etc.

I sent a PM to show my enthusiasm.

 

i want to get the matching console cover as well, but i have extra tuscany midnight leather from mine that i want to use. as well as getting the extra thick insert for it. If i can ship mine down to arizona first and get my leather shipped out as well im down.

 

I love my seats. there is no way i would be as happy with just seat covers. The truck smells way better as well now that i have leather.

 

Hey John
Can you please explain to us why vinyl would be better than Katzkins Lester for a console cover?
Thanks

 

Just ordered my kit today.. I'll be sure to post some pics when the install is finished. Thanks John!

I agree with judd94... I would be more interested if they were leather. I'll just have to wait and see what they look like.

 

i should have enough of the tuscany midnight leather to make a few. i will give up the rest of my leather to cover part of the cost of mine. im not sure how many it can make but i have about 31" by 64". its almost identical to dark graphite

 

Hey guys, I'm open to suggestions. I believe my Redline labor costs would be the same either way as well as the shipping. Soooo, my only concern is the cost of the 1/2 hide which is the minimum I can purchase from Katzkin. Let me look into it. You guys are right, why should I supply these bad ass leather kits then push an inferior vinyl product to cover the console I'm pretty sure I'm convinced. Thanks for your input and stay tuned .

I bought a leather console cover from Redline Goods and the the color match is pretty close to my Katzkins. I also did red stitching on the cover to match my seats.
Very good quality.

 

Anybody have a nice pic of their Redline Goods console cover that they'd like to share? There are a couple different options as well, no foam, lil foam and I think I lost my elbow foam. Thanks again!!

 

Her are a few pics. Sorry for the cell phone quality.

 

Here is my Redline Goods affiliate link if you would like to view/order their products. They are both great quality and workmanship.

awesomeness John!!!

 

John I will totally have a picture for you next week. The Seats and console have been in the shop for a month (Going crazy Offshore). The wife sent a picture of the seat against the console cover.

 

The Picture

 

Hello,
I want it on this i it's still going on.

 

So my leather arrived late friday night and I couldn't help myself.. Before going to bed I had all my headrests done and the back seats out of my truck. After work saturday I finished the rest of the seats and I couldn't be happier. My seats were quite a bit different then the DIY for leather on tw. But without that write up Im not sure I would have tackled it. Definately not easy, but for sure worth all the sweat and the cash! It's dark graphit leather with perforation and black stitching.. And heat! Thanks John.

 

Hey Kyser
It's ongoing just give John Huey a call. His info is on first page. If he doesn't answer he will call you bck after work. Congrats on upgrading your Tacoma to a whole new level. You won't regret it.

How hard are these to install? I have ZERO upholstery experience, but love the look. Anyone bought them and had a local upholster shop install them? Cost for labor ideas? Or could "anyone" install these? Im ordering a 2012 Sport DC and would love a set of these
