I have been wanting to switch out my cloth seats for leather seats. Been checking local junk yards with no success. Can anyone advise if any other generation seats will fit my 2002 without any problems or major modifications?

 

just buy katskins

 

So that two-toned leather interior of yours is from this Katskinz company?

Do you have a ballpark $$ on how much that ran?

design them how you hant whatever options you want and get the price because it varied depending on what you want.

 

my cloth seats are, imo, not padded nearly enough. do the leather kits come with padding? how do yours feel phxgold w/ leather kit? btw, your maxima is sick...

 

Thx for the compliment.
as far as the padding I had the shop replace the seat padding with memory foam so they feel awesome now. kept the factory back padding.
i say order your seat covers and find an auto /marine upholstery shop to do the install and replace the foam for you the key is to not allow them to do a mark up on the covers buy direct and pay labor only.
5" memory foam toppers and have them cut to size.

Thank you guys for the great info. I want to redo the interior once the best will be done.

 

thanks for the knowledge, phxgold!

 

hmm.. could you add foam to increase side support of our seats? That would be awesome.

 

that why i used Memory foam




Just kept the stock seatback foam and replaced the bottom cushion.

 

Good post...I've been wanting to do something with my interior as well...Despite me taking care of my leather it has cracked on the side bolsters and starting to wear. I have a black 01 myself and had thought about doing some new seat covers for a black interior. I know someone had asked earlier in the post but can anyone give a ballpark on what they had paid an upholstery shop to install the kit?

 

probaobly around 3-400 in labor depending on if you do the inserts and headliner as well.
