Default Opinions on Katzkins interiors?

I'm thinking about saving up this summer for some Katzkins leather for my 5th gen LX. My cloth is just beaten to all hell and I can't stand it anymore. Does anyone have these? Are they good quality? Hard to install? It's a lot of cash to drop, and I want to know as many details as possible. Thanks in advance!

My buddy has the kit in his lude. I always hated leather until he got his. His seats are totally comfy and bada$$ lookin. He had the dealer install his, so I dunno about install. I'd probably just pay to have someone do it for me too.

coo. I was gonna try it myself. I have installed custom seat covers before, so I know how to take the rear bench apart and such. I'm going to go with black on black, I think. Thanks for the input!

as a side note, my friend's prelude is black, but the leather he got was... dark graphite or something? I guess the full on black looked kind of weird. I would make sure to look at swatches, and test them against the rest of your interior.

If you do install it yourself, let us know how it goes. Maybe take some pictures and post the process in the DIY forum. That would be Rokken.

Okay, all the fuzzy interior pieces was one thing, but the pillows...LOL...that is awesome bro. You get 2 extra points for having the balls to put fuzzy pillows in your car.

Did they remove all the factory cloth, or just put the covers over it?

Did the kit come with an armrest and door panels?

Low-n-go- Nice i really like those seats

Has anyone dealt with leatherseats.com? I know the legend forum does groupbuys with them a lot and i was wondering which was better, katskinz or LS.com cause i want to do a grey leather w/suede center in my CL cause after 220,000 miles the leather has a few cracks
