I recently took off my front seat covers and sent them to Lseat.com for them to use as a pattern. I was doing some other cosmetic work on the truck so it was going to be out of commission anyway. I got the covers on last night and could not be happier with them. The quality is great and the fit is perfect. The only complaints are they don't have the best color matches and the communication could be better but if you email they will respond. Don't hold your breath on them answering the phone or calling you back. I am assuming they are charging $299.00 for the front set.
Lseat.com now has LX470 front seat pattern

I've yet to find anyone with identical grain on the leather. Those particular ones do look good if their priced at $299 for the front pair.
www.roadwire.com also has it. The pricing is very inflated so call a local trim shop that deals with roadwire.

I know it seems to good to be true. This is not cheap crappy leather either. I also ordered covers for my lx450 and they look great too. It's all leather the only part that was vinyl was parts that are hidden under the seat. I don't know how they do it. They probably don't have them added to the website yet so you will need to send lseat an email.
Could you post up some more detailed pics? Thanks!
Anyone able to get the same $299 qoute for the the front complete seats yet ? Is this deal reproducible !
That price strikes me as too low. But hey, it worked.
I found an awesome upholstery shop in the DFW area and my plan is just to take my LC to them and let them go to work. It's less a quality of materials issue than a craftsmanship game. I'm convinced a good pro can find a suitable leather, it's the install where the problems can occur.
Good automotive upholstery work is it's own niche. It's more about finding the professional than the product, IMO.

Any idea of what the seat back looks like? Wonder if they kept the netting or ???
the part where the LC has the net or the LX has the pocket is a panel that attaches to the seat and is separate from the seat skin being talked about here so there would be no change as you would reuse your old panel.
if you can post more pics would be great

They did my rear cargo area, it was a rare job for them, as they typically did more leather and custom work..

I did the install myself. Took about 5 hours. Don't get into a rush and it is a very satisfying job. You just need a lot of hog rings and hog ring pliers. Buy the good ones I cheaped out and regretted it. I wish I had sent him the center console cover and the seat back they probably would have made those too.
I see that $299 is for all front seat covers but they don't list the LC100. I would jump on that price as i have been quoted up to $700 for the fronts which i think is really high.
Wonder if they still have your template? Are the LX470 seats the same as LC100?
Has anyone been able to replace the entire carpet? Mine is disgusting. Who did you use?
Search came up with these...
http://www.all-car-carpets.com.au
http://www.sor.com/cat342d.sor - Called but was told they dont have LC100 carpets.
http://www.bedrug.com/ - Dont really have carpets.
How has it been holding up and what was the price for the whole carpet?
This is what im dealing with, but in more places and much darker then the pics shows.
