Some more info for those interested. I used Low Profile Suede Automotive Heat Transfer graphics. JohnnyS2k has the same on his S. The graphics themselves look incredible in person - like someone else mentioned...they look like they should be there. If you run your hands over the graphics they are so low profile that they feel like they should be there.

Now the instructions:

I used rubbing alcohol to prep the surface and remove any leather conditions. I then used some scotch tape to hold the graphics and backin in place once I was happy with the position. The I took an iron set to about 265 degrees, put a piece of paper between the graphic and the iron to make sure it didn't come directly in contact with the leather and pressed the iron on the graphic for 30 seconds. I repeated this until the graphic was fused to the seat enough to remove the backing. Once the backing was removed and the graphic fused I took the paper, placed it over the graphic again and put the iron against it for an additional 10 seconds completing the fusion of the graphic to the leather. Repeat for the other graphic.

This is easy to do and permanent. The company I got the graphics from (who remains nameless for copyright reasons and so this thread donesn't get killed) is professional. Their graphics are used by dealers and cost the dealers like $300-$500 installed!!!!

If anyone want more info let me know!
