You'll need hog ring pliers, preferably the angled type, lots of rings, patience and if possible get some experience wrestling 3 hobbits in the dark and you'll be good to go.

I believe you are wrong in your assessment. The leather has smoothed out as I was told it would by both the installer and the folks at LSeat. I have logged many hours of seat time since the install in January, and I can tell you that it is a nice tight fit with no signs of wear and is a pleasure to drive. If you followed some of my later posts regarding the product you would have known that.
In any case, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase them again.

@citadel The color match on the LSeat units is very poor to our lc. Especially on your 40th. I decided to change to Porsche seats on mine and was willing to forgo the two-tone color. I thought I saw that you just got katskin covers. Those really look awesome.
The leather quality I think is quite nice as well as the additional foam they put on makes it very good value.
The real test is how they look five years from now

@2fpower - the Katzkins are awesome. I bought the initial Katzkins set in 2006 and they are still in outstanding condition. I just removed them and replaced them with a brand new set. I am selling the old set to a member on the forum. I'd bet my old set from 2006 is likely nicer than a brand new set from LSeat....
If you have Porsche seats in an 80, does it drive any faster?
Post pics please.
Your likely right.
few more pics of Lseat.com leather seat covers
weather tech mats are nice and match up pretty good.....

Woodsman 44, that looks sharp! A quick clarification... the link in your post goes to an unregistered iseats.com. I'm wondering if you meant Lseats.com. Let us know!
Porsche seat installed
oppps...Lseat.com!!!....I corrected my above post 
just wanted to warn everyone that Lseat may be falling off the wagon.
My seat covers came in with the center perferated insert perfect on one side, and at an angle on the other side. If it was not perforated, it would not matter, but to me it looks weird. They apologized and said they would replace. Great!! well that was two months ago, and they have not responded to my emails for a few weeks now.
I also ordered and paid for an additional piece of material for the center console, that never showed up.
So, be warned....

I have about 3500 miles on the lseat covers now. No issues with them so far.

This is disappointing. Please keep us updated on your course of action and the outcome.
