eBay S14 Leather Seats I gave them a try.

I have been checking up on these leather seat covers for about a month, debating if i should give it a try. Once the seller made a best offer option available i sent in an offer for 400 plus shipping. He accepted it. I got them, they came from China. They are real leather. I already put on the rears and just finished the pass seat. I now know why interior shops charge so much for labor... my thumbs are killing me. Install was pretty simple if you know how to use a pair of pliers.

here u go:

they are black...it's just the flash.

looks amazing. good find

Those look great. I saw them a while back for an s13 and thought about it. Especially after i had been priced at over $1000 to convert mine to leather. I was a little scared to though. Those look great though. Good job installing them. Post up some pictures of the finished product whenever you finish.

yea i remember seeing them on ebay too...looks nice but i think i rather just look for oem leather seats than go thru the trouble...but they are nicer looking tho.

They really spruce up the interior!

Enjoy! But get a sunshade for your windows and A/C post haste.

edit: OH! I didn't even notice they were covers. I thought they fit kind of differently than mine. Anywho, enjoy!

archer, where did yours come from, are they just oem leather seats?

op, they look good, but would it have been a tighter fit had you used a heat gun? my driver seat is in poor shape, and my passenger seat is showing its age. back seat is just about perfect, so i wouldn't even mess with it. also, does it feel like oem leather, or does it have that real soft feel to it?

Boba, not sure if you've done it yet, but taking a heat gun over the material should shrink it up a bit and tighten it around the sides and edges...

looks pretty good. ive never been a big fan of leather seats, never seemed as comfy as cloth. not to mention the sticky-a$$-syndrome common with leather seats on hot days.

my friend got a pair of SPARCO S LIGHT CIRCUIT seats in his car they are awsome. LOTS OF $$$$$$$$$. But awsome!

They will shrink somewhat by letting the car sit out in the sun after a few days ,they will look even better. Craftmanship looks excellent for a product from China.

Post by **BoBa524** » Tue Jun 24, 2008 11:29 am

i will deff put a heat gun on them to tighten up the leather. thanks for the suggestion. i'll snap some pics in the next few day of the finished product once i do the driver's seat.

They look pretty nice, but I personally would have just purchased a nice racing seat or save a little more and get the pair cause thats a lot for some seat covers. I have a hard time watching people blow $20 a piece at wal-mart for them.

i'm not sure of boba's plans for his car, but i have no intentions of tracking my car, so why would i waste money on racing seats.

so how about it boba, do they feel like an oem leather, or that soft leather? i saw these on the ebay and wa wondering about them myself.

ya, hell no to racing seats. my goal for the car is to be comfortable, good looking, and quick(300hp) I don't want to buy a new car...i'm in love with the 240 so i'm trying to make it like a new one.

never felt real s14 leather, but these covers are soft-ish. I like the way the leather feels, i just hope it lasts.

also the seats have a pocket in the back!!!

Did the driver's seat today and here they are installed. I will deff go around corners with a heat gun to tighten the leather up. But, overall i give them a 9 out of 10.

the only thing i will have to get stitched up professionally are the headrests.

Damn Archer, that's a nice looking interior. Did you paint all that silver trim? It's a really nice touch.

Post by **l2efused** » Sun Jun 29, 2008 6:32 am

looking good.

i just did something similar to my car.. except i picked up a used set of black s14 leathers for my s13

yes the driver seat is ripped at the sticthing but overall they are still 1000X better then my crummy s13 cloth seats i had
