Default HELP w/Katzkins in my 2006 tC... QUESTIONS

I have dark red/cherry tC and before I got it I knew I wanted all black leather interior... Well, now I have my tC and will have anough $ pretty soon. I got a good deal on the tC. 14,100 out the door... And it's all clean and in great condition.

Anyway, I'm HOPING to spend between $1,200 - $1,500 (tops) for what I want:
BLACK LEATHER (no suede, no two-tone, nothing)
ALL SEATS
ARM REST
DOOR PANELS
SIDES IN BACKSEAT
ETC.

ASIDE FROM ALL SEATS, ANYTHING THAT IS THE BLACK MESH I WANT TO MATCH THE SEATS.

Is this realistic in pricing? ANYONE KNOW OF A GREAT PLACE TO GET IT DONE?
I live in Rancho Cucamonga and commute to LA, so anywhere between there!

HELP!!!

?BUMP?

ALL I REALLY NEED TO KNOW IS THIS:
1) WHERE is good in my area
2) HOW do I know if my '06 tC has the side airbags, and how does this affect my new leather interior?
3) Thinking of getting Katzkin... DOES the $577.00 package come with all DOOR/PANEL INSERTS and ARM REST and everything???


Have looked at 99% of all the previous leather posts here... Interested in some personal guidance/opinions in this thread.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

hey man i have the katzkin leather and suede in my tc. I had it done through my dealer. I cant give you a price of it all bc i got it at cost. however i can tell you what the kit should include. front and back leather, door panels along with back side panels, and the armrest. you can tell if you have side airbags if you look up at your front window at the bar. it should say srs side airbag equipped. something like that. they should give you an option on stitching. with katzkin, you can get double or single thread stitched or a piping. they should also give you a color choice on that. hope this helps!

A guy in our club just got his XD done for $1500 but I don't think it was katzkin. I would think the best way too find out what comes in their kit is to call them or find their website. And if you're talking about the A-pillar air bags then it will say so on the pillar. There are also air bags in my seats so you might want to lest them know that so they can be stitched correctly. That's the last thing you want is to get into an accident and your air bags not go off because you have a cool looking interior.

I bought and installed them myself for my 05 tC almost 2 years ago now. I got charcoal leather with blue seude inserts. I bought them for around 850 if my memory is right. The kit came with the seats, rear and front panels and headrests.

It took myself and a friend around 12 hours to put them in, plus i installed heated seats (and it was our first leather install as well).

Check out the pics I did of the install...
