These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

14 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

  • Rennlist: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hello all, anyone have experience with having the front eats reupholstered? I came across the LSEAT site, which appears to have pre-cut leather. My upholsters quoted me $800 per seat to go from scratch but i would assume that having pre-cut leather is the best way to go. Any other "kits" available?

POST 3Original post

I just completed mine a month ago. Its' work, but I'm glad I did it myself.

POST 5Original post

Those seats look good. Where did you get the material? My fronts are in desperate need of a refresh, other than that the interior is in decent shape.

Very nice work ! Where did you get your materials from? Are the seatback and armrest material an available items or did you buy bulk and cut and fit the plaid stuff yourself?

POST 9Original post

Those seats look fantastic. Congrats on a great job!

POST 10Original post

I have done some seats myself. There are always some final wrinkles that cannot be smoothed out. You don't learn the tricks and have the right tools to do a perfect job. If $800 is the cost for leather from scratch by a pro, let him do it.

POST 13Original post

I found the material at an Auto fabric store, cut and fit myself.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
