I'm looking to get leather seat covers for it, i've been looking online, but can't seems to find anything decent. Can anyone recomend a site/shop where this can be done?

Thanks all!

why would you buy leather seat covers?you should have bought the car with leather if you wanted leather.seat covers look tacky that's why i'm asking just stick to your cloth.

I know, i had a certain budget and had to maintain certain payment, hence no leather interior. So, if there is anything that could be custom fitted, it would be great.

Since your car is brand new there may not be any manufacturers making a seat cover yet for your model. If you dead set on having leather, look in your yellow pages under Automotive / Upholstery. It's going to cost you however!

I dont think I've ever seen them. You can have them redone I'm sure, but it'll be costly. I'd say to stick w/ the cloth.

My husband works at Toyota. Check with your local Toyota dealership. They can order them for you and also put them on.

I would think any auto upholstry shop could do the job. It would probably have to be custom made, but I love the feel of real leather. As long as it's not a convertible, it should be OK in Florida.

I got my seat covers from http://www.shearcomfort.com and they fit great. Not sure if they do leather but they have great service so that counts for something!

You can get the seats upholstered for around $1000-2000 depending on the quality of the leather and the shop. Much of that is labor so try and get quality leather. As far as buying a new car with leather, usually leather is packaged in expensive trim lines or options packages. If the only option you want is leather just go aftermarket and save the thousands you would spend at the dealer on other features you don't need.
