Hi from the UK!! biggrin.gif

The UK celica-club are thinking about organising a GB for leather seat covers and we've been looking at a few US suppliers.

Has anyone on your side of the pond had this done and if so who did you use??

We've found these guys www.leatherseats.com - anyone had any experience of them?

Cheers,

Matt.

There was recently a group buy with them on mr2oc.com. The quality seems to be good and the participants happy. I may be interested depending on price.

Considering the U.S. supplier could easily just send me seat covers seperately to my U.S. address, I don't think it would be a big deal. Let me know.

Hey All,
I would be interested in getting in on a group buy if one gets started. I talket to a www.leatherseats.com rep and he said that with 5 or so people we could get a 10% discount.

I'm not sure if anyone is interested, but I redid my trim from the ST cloth seats to the leather ones.

I am parting out the car, so I would be willing to sell the seats (or just the kit if it will come off nicely) to somebody

I am asking 400+shipping for the entire kit. It was only used for about a year...and is in very good condition still (no wear marks...)

PM me with email if your interested and I can send images

OH YEAH - and it's for a COUPE.

Great, looks like there is some interest in this. From what the Leatherseats.com rep said group buy price will be about $600 for the full set (both front and rear split folding). They seem to be nice high quality leather so I think it would be worth it. I have never tried to get a group buy going so if anyone has some experience organizing them info on the process would be great. I guess getting more people on board and setting a timeframe would be the first step. Love to hear what you all think.

Thanks,
Sean

I'm not sure if they can mix kits, but I would be interested in a kit for my Tundra (Access cab)
