New Leather -- Installed

[CBdeJ]

After hearing various stories about L seat and Ridies I decided to go with Roadwire. I had the first two rows done (their pricing usually includes the third row but since those seats have spent the past five years in the garage, I took a price cut and did the first two only).

I went with Roadwire's suggested colour (Doeskin) and had opted for contrasting stitching to match the dash.

They were finished today so obviously they'll tighten up a bit with a bit of time and heat.

Look nice. Congratulations! I wonder if they offer the slightly different LX470 version?

The impression I get is that they have over a thousand patterns that should nearly (if not completely) match the factory.

Looks great but your factory leathers don't look like they need replaced. You might be able to sell/donate if you still have them. If you don't mind sharing, what did the final cost including installation come out to for the front 2 rows?

Oh, the old ones needed it; they looked better in photos than in real life. The driver's side was a bit better but only because I had a couple of panels repaired about five years ago. The passenger side was pulling apart at the seams and was extremely dry. Both sides were hard and unpliable.

Final cost was $1900 + tax, all in.

Are all panels leather? That’s about what it would cost for Ridies Napa leather + installation.

Cant be completely sure but by touch it all feels constantly same, the graining is consistent on all the panels and it smells amazing. If any of it isn't leather, I can't tell.

I love the contrast brown stitching that you did, and am jealous. I too just had Roadwire installed (3 rows with center console) on my 2000 lexus lx470, and I’m super impressed by how everything fits and looks. My only regret was that I didn’t so it sooner.
