I just got my tC seats wrapped in leather through the dealerships. Yeah I know, big mistake.

It took them 1 week to do it the first time, I got it back, and they did a terrible job. Not only was it a bad leather job, but they disconnected the passenger pressure sensor.

The 2nd time, it took them 9 days, and I'm not sure I'm totally satisfied with it. Oh! and the pressure sensor still isn't fixed.

ANYWAYS, I was wondering if anybody could post pictures of their tC's with leather, especially the back seats!

I tried searching, but I could barely find what I was looking for. THANKS!

edit: updated with pictures

First off, look at how they left the back of my car:



Here's the actual leather:






Maybe I'm missing something, but WHERE DOES THIS PIECE GO?

 

yikes, thats awful... MY leather job from the dealer was fabulous. They just have a local shop do it anyways...

I'll take some pics when I get back from the club if i can remember..

 

I'll post some pictures as well when it's daylight out.

 

the pressure sensor is just a plug on underneath the seat.... they probably forgot the plug it back in while reinstalling your seats. go back to the cloth stuff and plug the sensor back in yourself. leathers overrated

 

OK...

I believe there are several threads ... just like this one...
But I'll post my pics anyway.

 

oh baby suede

 

bump for pictures added

 

I'm pretty sure that piece goes under the back seat backs - to cover the hinges. Fold the seats forward and I think it goes in there.

Also, I'd make your dealer fix that job. The leather is wrinkled in quite a few places - definetly an amature job.

 

im sorry to hear that

 

Looks like one of those infamous hack jobs that Longo Toyota is known for...

 

Ms. Jackal, we did not sell that car and you dont have any right to speak about our dealership that way just because you did not get your car from us and that you were offended by the trade in value of your car. Please retract that.

 

that's odd! my leather which I got from Family Toyota in San Juan Capistrano is perfect! I couldnt tell the difference between aftermarket and in something they'd put in an Avalon or a Camry from Factory. I'd defintly tell them you want it redone.

 

Maybe he/she did have it done at longo???? I don't know... It's just my opinion and I won't retract it.


I don't have ANY RIGHT to speak about your dealership that way......You do live here in America, right?

 

Since I got my car on January 25th, I've driven it a total of 7 days. The dealership has had it for 17 days. They've ruined the whole experience of actually owning a new car. I should just give them the first payment to take care of

I actually had it done at Power Toyota/Scion of Cerritos

I've already had it redone once, and believe it or not, this looks BETTER than before.

 

my tC came with leather...

=D

 

is that tan leather? i like the scion logo

 

hmm i donno if we can get dealer leather in maryland.... ill have to check but is leather a lot of upkeep i mean cleaning and stuff?

 

the actual color is called "dark charcoal" if i remember correctly.

i've had it for a day, i'll let you know! haha.

 

goodluck with the leather endevours

 

If you look at that piece that is disconnected, it's the one that goes right behind the back seats. It's got the holes for the three LATCH connections as well as the two tie down rings. It just snaps in. Read the subwoofer install instructions - they're on this board somewhere - as you have to remove and reinstall it in that process.
