Reupholster seats to leather?

I recently bought a new Jeep Liberty and they didn't have one with a manual transmission with leather seats. How much do you think it would cost to get my cloth seats reupholstered to leather? Has anyone done this to their vehicle?

Why would you do this? Spend the dough on BFG M/T's. If you want it done, swap seats, dont reupholster. Too expensive and time consuming.

I dont think that is true at all. I have Katzkin and they are amazing. The only thing I would suggest is you pay for what you get.

i got quoted $1600 for front + back seats, center console & door panels w/Katzkin leather in 2 different colors (blue/black) the guy at the shop will not use anything besides katzkin. he specializes in convertible tops for old school cars

So that means he is good. Do you have any idea how hard it is to stretch a top over the rack for a 69 chevelle? Stretching seats would be childs play after that!
