I replaced the leather in wifey's Lexus a while ago, and I was going to do an article on it to try to get a custom title, but then I found this on the site I got my leather from - maybe I'll still qualify...? Either way, enjoy and good luck. It's really not hard - you would definitely be overpaying an installer.

Around $680. That included shipping of the >11 piece kit, as well as an installation kit that included spray adhesive, hogring pliers, and about five or six hundred hogrings.

That looks neat! I've got some work to do on mine as well. Should be looking for hogrings and screws and everything.
