Hey there I just bought a 2011 QC Sport and the front passenger seat cushion has a couple bad spots or flaws in it and am wondering if any of you guys have replaced the factory covers and how extensive of a job it is. They are the cloth sport seats by the way.

I replaced the stock cloth in my 03 with Katzkins leather. Install wasnt bad at all, but I pulled the seats out of the truck for the install. It looked alot easier to do on the ground than all twisted up inside the cab.

Did you have to take the seat apart or the back off?

No...I was able to pull the old covers off and put the new covers on without pulling the back off. The hardest part was stretching the new leather over the headrests. New leather is very stiff, so you almost have to put some heat to it to get it to stretch all the way.

How much do the katskins run?
