New seat leather....

[w0by]

Anyone know any companies online that offer new seat leather for a drivers side? My 01 Town Car drivers side leather looks old. I've cleaned the leather and it still looks old and cracked so I'd like to just replace it. I wish Ford would've used a better grade quality of leather. I'm looking for a company that's not going to charge a ton of money.

I actually just remembered I can probably take it to an upholstery shop and have them either recover the leather or make new leather. I did that with the arm rest and it came out perfectly just like a new one from the factory.

I'll let you know what I do and how much it cost. The arm rest was only like $35 or something and they replaced all of the leather.

I need a driver's seat recovered in my 1996, but I would like it done up in Orange and White with orange piping. Of course, that would require an entire interior reworking, so it will likely never happen.

Until then, I just tolerate all the cracks in the seat!

Check with Katzkin.com they might have what you are looking for.

Thanks. That site is awsome. I wish Lincoln would offer cooled seats from the factory on the Town Car. Leather gets too hot in the summer.

Nope. Only heated seats.

yep, even my old 01 Navi had cooled seats...

certainly a welcome feature when the interior of the car reaches 120+ here in the valley of the sun:eek:

I just had a guy out to the house to repair a couple of small cracks in my 95 cartier seats. He charged $80 and did a nice job. He runs around to dealerships all day and does 5-10 cars a day. He mixed the matching color, and had a power sprayer in the mini van he drove to spray stuff on. It was a neat set up. Just a thought.

Look in the tech section for repairing seats. If they aren't severely cracked or split the Leatherique treatment will restore them.
