They do look nice. Kinda pricey though. You have to remove your existing covers to install these. May be worthwhile if you didn't get leather on your Hummer.

I would have to REALLY want these. They are very pricey but look nice. It's just an idea. Realistically, I'm just talking out my ass

Oh Silly Rabbit. One Leather Seat would look quite odd next to one cloth one.............

Some of those looked pretty sporty. The Black with red inserts were interesting. But I'm happy with my OEM leather! Look, I just saved myself over $600!! I need to find more chrome!!

So far the only thing I don't like about my rig is that I did not get the leather seats. I saw those on E-bay and was thinking about them also. I'm thinking that they would have to be taken to an Upholstry shop for install though, I just can't imagine you can just slid them over the top, so I wonder what the cost would be for the install. or what the cost would be to take it down to the upholstry shop and have them change it out to leather with there own materiel ?

Wow.....I must be a real dumb ass......
$777.77 (the Buy it Now price) for a complete leather interior in your choice of colors, doesn't seem unreasonable to me at all.
Wish I could have bought mine for that.
I upgraded from the factory cloth interior to the Katskinz (sp) and couldn't be happier.
It is a lot softer than factory, doesn't wrinkle up/crack or show wear as bad as factory...
And best of all, I got it without that piping I hate and that seems to be tearing up on several H3's I've seen lately.
The only real mistakes I feel I made on the upgrade, was not asking for my cloth covers back and not getting the H3 logo.
(just wasn't thinking.....I was to damn excited about taking delivery of the rig)
Also, after watching a Trucking episode on the installation of a Katskinz interior on a Ford Exploder..........
It appears that any jakeleg with some common sense, patience and a blow dryer can do the upgrade at home.
I wish I had know that then.
For someone without factory leather, I personally feel this is a great upgrade.
Just my opinion....and we all know about opinions don't we.......

I thought about getting leather in mine, but realized the only reason I wanted leather was for the heat, and you can get heated cloth seats now.

I opted not to get the leather because it gets really hot during the day and it doesn't go below 85degrees here in Guam.

I like the feel and appearance of real leather. In time the surface develops character with wrinkles and some color variations. Some of the newer cars have perforated leather with A/C blowing thru them!

It does looks good and feels good, but it gets really hot too! I have leather in my Acura and it's starting to have some wrinkles which bothers me.

With A/C and a cabin temperature of 70 degrees or lower, how can your butt sweat? Wrinkles in leather are a part of the character of leather and why its sought after, cherished and why people pay extra $$ for it.
