DIY Leather?
its looks good... only thing i would recomend... steam those seats... are are kinda wrinkly... just a little.. not bad.. but a good steaming should do the trick to smooth it all out...

Steam the backs you mean? Not the leather..
i actually did my own upholstery with a lot of help from my cuzin. it took a total of 2 days time if ur going to do it urself. or 1 whole day since i was on call for work on and off. the 2 front seats are probably the easiest when i was going through them but the back was a pain. heres the site though on my photobucket .

actually no... i meant the leather itself... if done right it will tighten the leather pulling out the wrinkles...

just steam them in the car if you want... just be careful and dont hold the steamer on the seats to long... and grab a rag to wipe off extra water...
I want to do this as my seats are wearing out on my 05 tC! Did he order it from the dealer or what? My friend and I talked to a local dealer that has it installed on their tC and he said it's aftermarket and runs about $1400 but includes install.
I found the katzkin leather package on creativecompacts website for around $500-$600...
