Default Any Katzkin Interiors done yet?

I'm thinking about doing the seats over with Katzkin leather inserts. Has anyone done this, pics, prices? I was planning on buying another set of seats, but I just found out how much they are. I'm one of those people that will only do something if it can be reversed to OEM.

the insert will cost you roughly about 700 bucks... I was thinking about it... but.... I don't think I will do it any time soon.... oh!! did you see the post about RECARO seat?? if I could get the same seat like that, I would prefer to go with it... $700 just for the insert is just not worth it..!!

I had Katzkin leather put in my 97 delSol that I had before the S2k. After 3 years I wasn't too impressed by the quality of the covers. They did not wear well at all. The factory leather is a much higher quality.
My wife had Classic soft trim seats in her Prelude. That leather was a much higher quality.

and



The doors were inserts and the seats were pretty pricy. These are not the seat covers, the seats were reconstructed. Boy does it make a difference.

There are a few other brands who do similar work.

I was thinking of doing Alcantara on the perf leather parts of the seats, doors, and center console in silver to match my car. I sat in an S4 with it and it velcro'ed my butt to the seat. Pretty cool. It is definately expensive, though...
