That is one very clean 80. How long ago did you get the seat covers?

This looks great. I ordered a kit in oak through Mosley a couple of days ago. Rob at Mosley is very helpful. I'm trying the heater/cooler option so will see how this goes. I hope it looks this nice but with perf'd panels.
Rob was very helpful on my order just a couple of days ago.
That's so s***ty of them. They basically acquired Roadwire and doubled the price. I got 2 rows INSTALLED from Roadwire for $1799 in dark brown leather with custom stitching, including all armrests, center console, and door panels.
What steering wheel cover is that?
I have a connect in Pakistan that does it. He sends a new wheel complete to the USA
Care to share?
Shoot me a DM and can send his info. You send money via Western Union and communicate via his personal number. I’m happy to make connections 
I have had modest success through the years on the steering wheel with Fiebing's Black Leather Dye in several coats followed by their clear gloss acrylic. The clear acrylic gets reduced 50/50 with water. It takes several coats of the dye to achieve an even color.
Leather steering wheel cover?
The leather on my wheel is pretty worn and Ive been looking into some cheap cover options Found this on EBay Just curious if anyone has one and if it somewhat matches the factory oak

I had my Mosley seats installed back in May and I’m having the leather gather in a couple of places. This is what it looks like now - anyone experiencing a similar issue?
Butt Prints! How was our Original Foam? Did you Replace or Add?
No easy Solution now unless you could shrink that Panel some How??
To add another data point to this thread, I just had Katzkin leather installed in my LX450 this past Monday. 1st row only, as I don't have any other seats in the truck. Went with "coffee" full leather seats, headrests, armrests, center console.
$1807.29 out the door.
Here's one bad photo of the driver's seat. Too cold out.

Combination of the installer and product. What I like about Katzkin is they include installation in the price, and only use their network of installers.
My installer was in an industrial part of town and looked pretty shady to me. However the reviews were all excellent, and as I drove up, my LX450 was the runt of the litter amongst a smattering of exotics. The guy in the Maybach wasn't thrilled that I parked next to him.
Ugh, so it sounds like there is little chance of going around them on seat heater prices. $695 is a bit much in my book, I also want to use the factory wiring and switches now that I know they exist.
I had my seat heaters installed when I did the LSeat leather and new bottom and back foam about 9 or 10 years ago. I specifically told the installers not to do any electrical. I just wanted the heating pads installed properly under the leather. I place limits on anyone who works on my truck, and I do all electrical installs.
The LX450 doesn't have the OEM seat heater wiring in place, so I made my own using OEM switches.
For those that care, here are 2 reasonably high res pics in better lighting of the newly recovered seats.
Now that it's out of the 20s, the leather is super soft and snuggly comfortable when warm. I hope they last.
Yes, I know I have to clean the interior and vacuum after winter. No, I didn't bother to recover the center row armrests. And yes, I suppose I'm bragging a bit.

Jon,
You deserve to brag! Nice job. What did you do about seat foam? I now have a July 1 deadline in front of me and need to get busy.....finishing steering knuckle today hopefully!
Thanks for photos.
