Need leather installed

I love my tax return check!

I now can finally have leather seats installed but I do not know a reputable company that can do it. The dealer *ugh* suggested a company but they want to charge $1062.00 w/o tax to install them. Does anybody know a better deal? I live in Southern California.

What brand is it? Classic Soft Trim has install facilities across the country, including SD.

I did Classic Soft Trim, and their dealer price in Houston is $800. Retail I think they charge $1,000+ (at least), so that might be a pretty good deal.

BTW, if you do Classic Soft Trim, you might decide if you want their logo on the back of the front seats or not. I didn't know they did this, and have it (it's not overly obnoxious, but had I known I would have stopped them).

Do you already have the leather kit, and are just looking to get it installed?

I had mine done w/2 tones leather and "butt warmer" for both front seats for $800 total. It was a special deal since the person who did the installation is also a maxima.org member (Vicioussss1). He does this professionally. If you're in the eastcoast area, drop him an email.

The shop that he's employed at is off of Rt.28 of Northern Va. He had several posts from the "leather Group Deal" thread. That was where I got in touch of him back then. Shoot him an email and see if he still offers the same deal.

Install it yourself. It give you a sense of accomplishment. BTW, why did you go with Classic Soft Trim and no Leatherseats.com? My Leatherseats.com setup and material is many nothces above OEM.

Don't know leatherseats.com, but classic soft trim is also not OEM (and better). The .com sounds cool if you do your own installation though.

try www.katzkin.com and find a installer near you. I had them do my leather with heaters and it looks hot, got many compliments on it, check out my homepage to see the seats.
