I am in search of some charcol or gray colored leather seats for a sedan, any help would be greatly appreciated, it is super hard to find the sedans, can find hatchbacks all day.
did you call around to the junk yards? once in a while you can catch a full set front and rear leather on ebay but shipping is high due to weight and size.
Have you thought about using tiburon seats. There easy to find and have more support than the elentra seats and bolt up. They also have the plugs for the airbags.
If you can't find a sedan, the hatch seats will work, they'll just need a bit of modifications (relocating the brackets for them to lock in place) and won't reach the entire height of the rear speaker lid. It's an option if you can't find a sedan at all. I would hold out though.
appreciated very much, just sent the seller a message about shipping, that didnt come up on my search, also does anybody know how short the hatch rear seat would be(any pics?) and would the height be the only issue with the rear?
No, no custom touchs, they are pretty basic because i got them off ebay from some business that had a set someone ordered and never paid for, so i talked him down to $200 for the whole set, awsome deal.
Well the set i bought i got off ebay because some guy ordered them through a Katzkin distributor and never paid for them so the company put the one set on ebay, so i guess you could go to Katzkin.com but you deinetly wont get and entire set for $200 like i did, i guess it was a once in a lifetime type deal
The Katzkin site isn't very good for the general consumer. They used to sell through www.autoleathers.com. However that site seems like just a contact page now.
because i found a local shop that would reupholster my seats for $1000 or so. and i think seat covers would be good for now, only if i can get ones for the side air bag
I believe the Katzkin's were going for $650-700 for the least expensive to well over $1000 for ones with multiple colors and options. And then you still have to install them yourself.
Yeah, they will work. Covers is the wrong word since you'd replace your upholstery with the new Katzkin upholstery. There used to be a video up on one of those sites that explained the whole thing and how their upholstery worked with all side air bags that are in the seats. I don't see it on Youtube but there are some other Katzkin videos there.
