Need some help here. I know that at one time there was a post on where to get oem replacement Eddie Bauer two-tone leather seat covers as well as a great link on doing the actual replacement. Just can't find either the post or where to get the covers again. Anyone have a suggestion?

Thx,

Jim

 

The cheapest place I have found for OEM seat covers has been ebay, I have been looking for tan leather Limited covers, but the Eddie Bauer covers would be a nice upgrade. Hmmmmm.....

 

There are a couple of eBay auctions right now - but they want $200 just for a seat bottom! Way too much for it - but would give you the factory look and would match your existing seats.

A bit more work is to replace the full interior - can specify the colors, patterns, piping, thread color, etc.
This one is $900 for the front and rear set - I'm sure the 3rd row could be done as well since it's currently vinyl and would be nice to have in leather.

for my jeep 5.9 limited leather seats, I went to an upholstry shop and he matched up the grained leather and replaced it nicely...

might call your dealer and ask them who they use.... that's what I did and it was cheap IMHO...

 

Thanks for all your replies/advice. Been using this site since 2004 and you are a great bunch of people.

That guy doesn't seems too good looking at is feedback:

Yep - I noticed that too - still a good comparison. I had a bookmark for a company who was using Katzkin to do the interiors on the Excursions and can't find it now. Katzkin itself doesn't have a kit for the 2nd row captain's chairs but this other company did.

 

you might want to check these guys out "click here" they have a vast variety of seat covers to choose from. They have Neosupreme, leather, even something called "I can't believe it's not leather" <----- but seems pretty legit and looks good too
they even have a blog to follow " CalTrend seat covers blog"

as for an installation video here is what I found for you "click here" pretty easy and self explanatory.

hope this helps and good luck.

 

Thanks much. I appreciate it.

Jim
