I'd recommend finding a local Katzkin rep and installer. That way, if anything goes wrong, you are covered.

 

BTW - you'll love them, I love mine and get compliments all the time.

I recommend you go to a reputable dealer. I went the ebay route and got some Katzkin covers that were full of wrinkles after installed and appeared to be cut wrong (big). I was told, no way of confirming if true, but some ebay retailers buy old stock or foreign made seat covers. Again, I don't know if that is true. When I complained to the ebay retailer, he wouldn't do anything to help me. I took my truck to a dealer who said the covers were too big. The wrinkles are caused by being stored in boxes too long. Initially, the dealer went to Katzkin for warranty on my behalf but they denied the claim I am guessing because of the ebay purchase. I wrote a letter to Katzkin and sent them some pictures. In just a few hours I received a call from a rep who arranged to send a set of new covers to a dealer of my choice for replacement. The new covers were perfect and no wrinkles.

Care to share some pictures of your newly dealer installed ones

I would go thru local dealer or a reputable dealer. If I ever change out my seat covers Katzskins will be my choice as well.

I wish I could but I traded that truck for a 2016 double cab. All I can tell you is they fit much better. I was having problems with the first set coming loose on the bottom. And the covers being so loose on the seats was allowing the seat cushion to shift.

i paid 550 on ebay and installed it myself. while it was loose when it was first installed it tightened up. i have read since my install if you use a wallpaper steamer on the BACK of leather when installing it will tighten right up without the wait. i would do it again.

Just curious, I have the LT with factory leather and front bench.. Is the katzskins better and softer than what I got from the factory? The wife's Cherokee has leather and man is it soft and comfortable..
