Leather Seats on TRD Sport

Just bought my first truck after trading in my 2013 Audi Allroad. It's only been 3 hours of ownership, but definitely love my new 2016 black 4x4 TRD Sport DCSB. Was curious if anyone could recommend some great leather seat cover or a leather upholstery company in the Seattle, WA area that could install some leather seats? I have a few young kids and definitely prefer leather interior so any help would be much appreciated.

 

Look up Katzkin leather.....the way to go, there's a group buy somewhere here in the forum as well.

 

You can buy this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2016-TOYOTA...f203c55&pid=100033&rk=4&rkt=4&sd=272030218068

And have an upholstery shop install it.

 

Is the group buy a better deal than the eBay listing? Anyone have a link to the group buy? Thanks

 

Not really a group buy anymore but still in that section. Ebay link is a bit cheaper but those are plain black and probably leftovers.

I havnt got mine installed yet, but will be as soon as I make an appointment. Custom Soft Trim. Have locations around tge country I believe. I will be going to Pittsburgh PA location. They have a website . You can pick any color/ two tone, custom stitching and embroidery etc. They/ Pittsburgh location anyway, have a Facebook page and they look like they do very nice work

 

I just picked up a TRD Off-road last week in Portland and had aftermarket leather put on through dealer recommendation. Looks mint. Cost $999 to add leather but what was worth it to me. Not sure how that compares to what others pay or are willing to pay. But it looks like a factory job so I am happy. Let me know if you want the name of the place if you are willing to drive to Portland. Only took a day for them to do it and my dealer has been using same folks for 20 years and he told me he has never had a complaint.

 

Clazzio is a decent option as well. The fit and finish is pretty damn good. Not quite as nice as Katzkin, but a bit cheaper and if/when the leather wears out I can peel them off and I have brand new cloth underneath. With Katzkin I believe the original seat covers are removed before the Katzkin goes on...

 

You should post some pictures.

 

On an airplane but will try and get some up asap.

 

Here's a quick pic I have on my phone that I took after I got the rig. I will try and put up some more pics that actually show the upholstery work.

 

Portland, OR? What dealership? Looks really nice.

 

Yes, Oregon. I just bought the truck 12 days ago and have been out of town since I bought it. It has like 65 miles on it lol. The dealer I use is Broadway Toyota (now I think it is called Toyota of Portland) and is the one down by the Moda Center. The leather guys are in Beaverton. When I get back tomorrow, I will find the bill of sale from the leather guys, I can;t remember their name offhand. They have the access to the factory patterns and materials, but they can do anything custom that you want as well. I just went with the most basic and it turned out better than I had hoped. You would never know it was aftermarket. I'll post the info up here when I get back home.

 

Cool. I'm looking forward to finding out who did yours. Looks great. Did they remove the stock fabric or go over it? My truck is scheduled to be here 3/5-3/9, so no hurry.

 

That's a great price if it's front and back! I've seen people here paying over 2k.
I got my full Katzkin install for 1200 and that's the best I've seen since yours popped up.

 

I'm honestly not sure if they did cover the cloth seats or not, but I would like to find out. As far as the pricing is concerned, I got special pricing on the truck through my brother (Friends and Family deal) and the guy who worked with me on it had me just pay the upholstery people direct. If I did it through the dealer, I am sure they would have put at least another 25% on that, but I don't see why anyone else could not go direct with them. The discount I had was only through Toyota and did not apply to the leather guys, so I am guessing that's their standard price. It is front and back as well. I'll get some pics up soon.

 

That is good to know. I have an AC coming, so I only want the front two seats done.

 

So it turns out my seats are Katzkin too. Shows you what I know. The guy is in Beaverton and they are called Coach Automotive. I got a dealer discount through my guy so not sure how much it would be normally. If you want to PM me, my dealer said he would reach out to them and that would save some money. Here are a couple more pix. I have been driving it for about 2 weeks now and have been super happy.

 

is that black or graphite color?

 

+1.

Clazzio covers is another option - a very popular one - and I have their covers in my own taco, but I wish I had gone with Katzkin.
