So since I’ve traded in my old truck and have a new 2021 RST, I’m looking at new seat covers. I had katzkins on my last truck that were nice. I’m considering going a little more cost friendly this time around. That being said there’s a couple that I’ve seen and wondering if anyone has some real life experience and pictures showing how well they fit. 
 

I’m looking at the clazzio covers as well as these unbranded covers on eBay that look eerily similar to katzkins. Maybe a Chinese clone?

 

Anyways, if anyone has info/pics on these two or another leather/leatherette option, let me know. 
 

Thanks in advance.

Your link is for replacing the cloth seat covers, unless that is what you're after. I took your post as wanting to cover up what you have now. Sorry if I'm reading it wrong.

Either one. Like I said, they look similar to katzkins which I installed on my last truck. These are seat cover replacements, the clazzios slip over the existing. I’m looking to see if anyone has experience with either.

I purchased a Roadwire kit from my local truck accessories shop for about $600.  I wanted roadwire because I couldn't find a Katzkin kit that wasn't perforated(wanted non perforated because I thought it'd help stay clean because perforated has holes for sand/dirt)for me to purchase and install myself.  The shop I bought from installs the Road wire and since he lives across the street from me he didn't mind selling me the kit and letting me do it myself. He also let me talk to the guy who does his installs for pointers but youtube has some good videos on how to install.  The only issue with youtube that I had was that there weren't any videos of installing the rear seat back that had storage or an armrest which wasn't too hard to figure out but I wanted to see someone's install on the arm rest to see if I could make a tighter fit on it when in up position.  The two kits mentioned above you take the cloth covers off and install the leather in its place.

I had Katskinz installed as a dealer option which included heated seats. Very pleased with the leather and while pricey (~$2K), it's held up well (only 12K miles) and feels great.

"Fake leather" = it's vinyl.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.

      loose lug nuts

      By newdude · Posted

      Any grease on the stud threads of any kind?   Wheel studs should have NOTHING on them for proper torquing and so the nuts don't back off.     Are all of the mating surfaces clean?  So wheel, rotor and hub?     We've had plenty of trucks at work with that wheel, this is a first to me.  Makes me think they've got a lube tech putting anti-seize on all the wheel studs or some kind of grease, and they need to stop doing that.  To have 11 other trucks with the same exact problem.
