2020 LT leather seat self install?

[andrewb24]

My next upgrade to my truck is probably going to be installing leather seats either katzins, roadwire or some factory takeoffs.  Should I pay someone to do it or do it myself?  I believe my installer in town wants about $1250 to furnish and install.  I should be able to get a kit for $500 plus or minus a few bucks shouldn't I?  These people did my 2014 Silverado with roadwire seats and did a good job but wanting to save a little money.  One plus of doing myself is my truck can sit in the garage for several days if I want to do a little at the time or if it takes a lot of time because I have a work vehicle I can drive.   Just wanting thoughts if it is going to be a big headache and get an idea if it will be worth trying to save.

I was able to install Katzkin leather seats myself with ease in my 2015 and my current 2019. If you have a little know how and watch the YouTube videos, it’s easy

thanks where did you purchase the katzins? ebay?

I’m in Canada so I got the current set from canadaseatskins but on my last truck they were from eBay

I did mine with OEM leather covers and was pretty simple on the front seats. Not sure on the rear seats since I swapped it out with storage on the seat
