Default Leather take off

Hello all, I am still loving my new mustang. I do have one regret... I wished I had got the leather seats. I have been looking on e-bay and found a few sets of the take off leather's. They run from 350-550. Frist off how hard is this to do? It has about 500 miles on it. Will the covers look like they came with the car? I know I may have to take it to an shop to get it right. Just wanted to know if anyone has done it or seen it done.
thanks,
MLT2

You have to remove the two front seats to do it. I heard it has taken people 2-5 hours to do.

if you are interested in getting some gt takeoff leather for a resonable price, there is a group buy you can join. if you arent interested in joining, just buy from the sponsors....just thought i would let you know that the group buy was going on. later dude.

Wow you have to remove both seats? Ugh i also wanna get leather take off's (damn cloth stains way too easily) They told me they look like they came out of the factory with the leather since they are just taken off of seats which had them. Havent seen any pics of them put on but i would think they would fit properly.

Thanks for all the help. What is this group buy you speak of? I would not mind to buy from sponsors I love this site. SOunds like it's not to hard to do. Taking the seats out are not that hard to do. Just takes a bit of time. I was just hoping they woudl look like they came out in the car new. After all it has 500 miles LOL. thanks again for all the help.

I'm also thinking about getting a set to put away for the future. I currently have Leather put prefer the perforated leather in the GT's as opposed to the smooth leather in the V6's .... I figure a couple of years from now when the Leather is may start looking shabby I can put the brand new GT take-offs on ...
