How to Re-upholster Your Leather Seats for $350!

I’ve seen better

Do you remove the headrest sockets to remove and replace leather without tearing it?

Wow, thank you so much for sharing this video. I really like the fact of how you go into detail of how to install the hog rings with hog ring pliers.
I’ve been really looking to replace the seat covers on my 32 year old car the only thing I was worried about was the seat foam whether I get it right or not, what type of leather did you use exactly?

I heard that NAPA leather is the best either that or full grain leather.

where did you get the Replacement Upholstery from?

Why is the leather not taunt? It kind of looks....not finished.

Excellent thanks! I plan to do mine after receiving the leather. I will do one seat per weekend. Starting with the passenger seat first. The next weekend should go smoother with the driver's side seat. Thank you.

nice job..., did u do new leather yourself or paid 4 that, then install yourself???

Where can i find seat covers like this for a 2012 honda crv ex-l? Are those after market, specific to that car or is it a universal seat cover? Thanks

🤌🏾Wouldve been nice to see the sewing part, THATS the hard part

I want to do this without removing my seats...

awesome job! thank you for detail technic show and display

Great video it’s underrated

Wondering will he do this for people I I’m need him to do mines 🤔

Who did the stitching in the leather covering

So to make new seats, could you hypothetically just remove the old leather and then put a seats cover hover the foam that's left?

How have these held up? I hear iffy things about LSeat leather and I'm trying to decide what to do about my seats. Tried the Procar Elite Lumbars and they're nowhere near as comfy as stock.

Those covers look terrible. Videos like this degrade what true upholstery is the craft of an upholsterer. All those wrinkles shouldn’t be there and it has a very loose fit which is not okay. Seat covers that you guy like that from Lseat use the absolute cheapest material possible so eventually you’ll be right back where you started, with a ripped seat. Yes you pay a little more with your local upholstery shop but if you care more about saving that $200, you’re what’s wrong with this world.

How 2 take out the whole seat on van econoline?

Need rebath to get into the car upholstery business😂

On average typically how much sqft of leather do you use for 1 car seat

Wonderful result. But to be honest I would much prefer to have a craftsman like yourself renovate the seat than a man like myself who hasn't your talents

What's the green tool (wired) you're using on the foam before you attach it? I'm about to do the Exact. Same. Job... so thanks for the inspiration and instruction!

Nice work!

Nice job

what thickness of the foam should i buy? one inch?

Would you suggest ? should i add Dimond stitches or just regular? where did you buy that foam?

Love it been tempted to have my seats redone, just don't want to pay for it. Where did you order you covers? And are you satisfied with the finish?

Any issues with adding foam and the cover being too small now?

Did you consider buying new OEM seat foam?

Great job! I did this when I converted my Gen1 Tacoma to 4runner leather seats and it was way easier than I thought it be! I did replace the foam with new OEM though. My back used to hurt after an hour of driving but now a trip from SF to Tahoe is no problemo!

Any coupon codes for your subscribers?

So, after everything, would you do it again?

Up next, how to change out the upholstery on the back seat!!

Why didn’t you add seat heaters I got a set from Amazon for 60 bucks and it was a beyond easy install when I added my Lseat covers to my 80

Nice YT freighter ;) and a little ID4 tune at the end there too?

Freekn awesome, nicely done!

Wow. Just Wow. What a job to tackle!

I think you can steam them to get the wrinkles out.

Looks like it turned out awesome, great work! How do you find the comfort level compared to the seats prior to doing this repair?

Looks absolutely stunning. Great job Michael!

thank you share detail the video
from Australia

Great job Mike.

After watching the console mock up video, I searched for replacement seats for your rig. I couldn't find the correct color and the seats weren't in any better shape than what you had. These turned out great.

Sorry, can you do that over again? I was distracted by the incomplete YT 492727ZED in the background...

He kinda of reminds me of Jim Carrey lol

Michael, did you buy the seat fabric already sewn together into a cover, or did you have Corrie sew it up for you? I ask because I am going to be redoing the seats in both my Bronco and my wife’s 4Runner.

Also while I’m in there we are going to be adding heated seats along with full power adjustments.

Hey Mikey, A job very well done. You certainly redefine the term "Slapping Leather" Just sayin. Cheers, Mate.

They really turned out amazing

For those who own a newer models that comes with Airbags, be real careful at the time you remove the seat from it position on the floor due to the cable that is hooked to the floor and also with the wiring, I do recommend disconnect the battery and even with that precaution make sure you have a radio with a security code, which you will need it at the time you hooked the power back
