Did you have new leather put on those seats? They look nice!

Exactly what I was thinking. I like that it's just a little darker (or seems to be) than the factory tan. I'm itching bad for leather in my truck.

Yes, new leather on the seats about 8 years ago. Had them embroidered before install.

The truck is in Fort Worth, TX and Pagosa Springs, CO.

Yes, it’s a shade darker and looks really good with the beige trim. I was hoping for a saddle leather look but it looks more traditional.

Did you buy a leather kit from someone or is it custom made?

a vendor in Keller had kits that he could order. I Never found good ones that I could order as a consumer and either he would not tell me his supplier or the supplier only sold to installers.

i bet by now you could find a quality kit.

Any embroider can add designs before you install.

I did! It was a kit through an installer vendor in Keller, TX. I wish I could link to him because he was awesome. But it’s been 8 years.

Thank you! Borderline restoration. My paint had oxidized and the original seats were worn out badly. 4 rounds of hail damage.

The icons run pretty good but my Bilstiens had a softer ride.
