Hi from the UK!!
 The UK celica-club are thinking about organising a GB for leather seat covers and we've been looking at a few US suppliers. Has anyone on your side of the pond had this done and if so who did you use?? We've found these guys www.leatherseats.com - anyone had any experience of them? Cheers, Matt. |

There was recently a group buy with them on mr2oc.com. The quality seems to be good and the participants happy. I may be interested depending on price.

Considering the U.S. supplier could easily just send me seat covers seperately to my U.S. address, I don't think it would be a big deal. Let me know. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |

Hey All,
I would be interested in getting in on a group buy if one gets started. I talket to a www.leatherseats.com rep and he said that with 5 or so people we could get a 10% discount. |

I'm not sure if anyone is interested, but I redid my trim from the ST cloth seats to the leather ones.
I am parting out the car, so I would be willing to sell the seats (or just the kit if it will come off nicely) to somebody I am asking 400+shipping for the entire kit. It was only used for about a year...and is in very good condition still (no wear marks...) PM me with email if your interested and I can send images OH YEAH - and it's for a COUPE. |

Great, looks like there is some interest in this. From what the Leatherseats.com rep said group buy price will be about $600 for the full set (both front and rear split folding). They seem to be nice high quality leather so I think it would be worth it. I have never tried to get a group buy going so if anyone has some experience organizing them info on the process would be great. I guess getting more people on board and setting a timeframe would be the first step. Love to hear what you all think.
Thanks, Sean

Thanks, Sean I'm not sure if they can mix kits, but I would be interested in a kit for my Tundra (Access cab) |
