Looking for replacement leather options for my 96 LX450

[1973Guppie]

and don't underestimate the amount of work to install the covers yourself. It is a TON of work to do it right. I did it myself but would consider paying someone if I were to tackle it again. The nice thing about the metric tlc leathers is they are really thick. I don't worry about having the kids, luggage, sand, whatever on them.

I just sent them an email about group buy and I have a set of OEM Toyota covers from 40th that I can send them for patterns.

Will advise....

Thanks for the code 2fpower. Im also looking for 80 series seats. Are you making arrangements to send in your 40th covers or do we still need someone to do it?

Just placed my order for a front set in LARK for my LX450. Going for the seat heaters and looking for replacement lower cushions.

SOR has lower cushions that they list as universal. They appear to be an SOR product.

Read an interesting thread about the differences in seat bottoms. I ordered Lexus bottoms online.

I finally went ahead and ordered the Metric set. Took advantage of the 20% discount and was told it will be about 4 weeks.

Thanks for charging ahead on this task. I put cheap seat covers on my trashed out front seats and have to readjust them every time I am in or out of the truck. New seat covers would be nice. I'll go back to lurking until you get yours finished.

Anyone get these in their hands yet?

This appears to be a set in the FS section

What is your opinion on the overall quality of leather/stitching?

 

[NC LX]

yes

Sorry, should of specified. This is the picture they sent me of my covers. I should receive them in a few days. I may start a new thread and write a review of initial impression, quality and installation. If it goes well there's gonna be a lot of happy 80 owners for $299.

Bumping this back to the top.
I received my seat heaters a few days ago and just got my new bottom cushions. I'm waiting on the leather covers at this point.

I hope my old bony a$$ appreciates this.

Do you have a Lx450? Where did you get you cushions from? I've got a 12 hr drive home on the 19th so it would be nice to have everything installed then.

Lexuspartsnow.com for the lower cushions. 71511-60070 and 71512-60070

You won't be disappointed, I love mine.

Got an email this afternoon. My seats have shipped and should be here next Monday according to tracking info provided. I'll get everyone a review as soon as they arrive.

Kind of confused, I just got my seat cushions from Lexus of Knoxville and received a 71506-60040 and a 71512-60070 cushion. They both are in Toyota bags. But I think one is the FJ80 cushion.

 

[maineidyl]

Should have stated, reason for confusion is I ordered for my 96 LX450.
