Question Leather Seats

Does anyone know where to by leather seats? I dont want the whole seat just replace the cloth on my seats. I read the DIY on how to do it, but the link to the website was no good. Just want to know what are some good brands that will last. Thanks........

Either nobody buys their seat covers or they look like crap where they don't wanna show them.

Best bet is to find actual oem seat covers or a reputable name like Katzkin

ALI it a great seat as well but id rather put my money towards the katskin. ive seen many trucks/cars with the katskin kits and they are awesome. dont cheap out on stuff like this. you get what you pay for and you want something thats will withstand the abuse. also if you can afford to have a professional do it i would, its not terribly hard to do but it takes time and alot of patience.
