New Leather Kits for the 80 series Land Cruiser

Exact 1993-97 Leather reproduction kits.

NOTE * Toyota and Lexus are completely different patterns and do not interchange. Both models are shown in this thread to show colors and detail.

I have been chasing the perfect reproduction leather for the 80 series. Well I am excited to say it's now been done.

We guarantee the quality of leather, stitching, craftsmanship to be free of defects in the leather and workmanship 100%.

We are now including an installation kit that includes hog rings, hog ring pliers, Exacto knife for cutting bolt and screw hole locations.

Silicone spray in not included but it's used for ease of slipping covers on.

This is a replacement to your worn out covers.

1. Front rows, Middle rows and third rows are available.

*Purchase them here @ MetricTLc.com

Other models, steering wheels, shifters and replacement decal are here @ MetricTLc.com.

We are now shipping ground UPS for FREE.


Best,

Shane

Shane,

Looks fantastic. Price? PM me if you want. Interested in front and middle, assuming that would include arm rests and center console.

Thanks!

all these bumps and links to this thread and no pricing, why do I think they are going to be over the top expensive?

Both rows are cheaper than buying the drivers seat bottom and back from Toyota.

Shane,
Did you recover the hard front seat backs where the netting is attached. If so, can you supply the vinyl or other matching material to do this with? Just curious. I would like to recover these as the corners are bunged up. I would love to replace my netting elastic too. Mine's a saggin.

Thanks for the info,

Josh

Yes this piece (2) comes with the kit. I added it to the package list, thanks. I choose to omit the nets from mine when I recovered mine.

nice pricing, I need to square away a few things and get this ordered. I'm assuming that warmer weather would help with the install.

Any chance you might want to branch into making molded carpet sets for the 80's? Just wishing and hoping. I know these can still be purchased for $400 or so at the Dealership and/or CDan.

Those look amazing.

My seats in my 40th Anniversary are still in pretty good shape but I know they are gonna get beat up. I should pick up a set and those seat heaters for future repairs...

Hey Shane

The stretchy elastic cord for the top of the map pockets should be available in rolls at any outdoor camping store or clothing repair store. It's mainly used for tent pole repairs and replacing drawstrings on bags/clothes. HTH!
