I have 2000 lx 470, with beige interior. The front seats covers are torn. The back is still good. Though I am open to replacing the full front seat covers. Can you suggest a few places where I can find seat covers that 1) close match for the factory covers 2) relatively easier to install Thanls

I have a 2000 lx470 and both front seat leathers are in poor state. The leather on the back is much better. It's just the seat leather that's in terrible condition. Can I purchase just the seat leather instead of the whole chair (seat and back, including the headrest)? If not, can you suggest...

I am wondering if I need the long piece with threads. This appears to be missing from the ones you suggested
