Katzkin question

[Socalbeachbum]

I’m looking into upgrading my cloth seats to katzkins and had a few questions. I’m super ocd and I can’t stand any wrinkles or loose material. How is katzkins compared to factory leather? I also wanted the raptor logo on the seat, but katzkins advises they can’t do that for copy right reasons..any suggestions?

Katzkins is a good reputable brand. Wrinkles are mostly installer related. There is more to it than just slipping on a seat cover. A steamer is a must for the best fit. You might be able to have a local embroidery shop do the logo. It is copyrighted so it is understandable why Katzkins won't do it.

Bump..Any idea where to get the logo? It seems like it would be tricky to add on after the fact.

You might be able to find a set of 801 seats and bolt them in. I like the Katzkin products I’ve seen. I would assume the copyrighted logo would be a problem for any legit shop.

Are these 800a seats the same base you can pull a cover over as 801a? If so, a full set on ebay out of a new truck is "buy it now" for $300 at the moment.

Yes those are the same but I have a scab...I wonder if they are different than the screw in the back seat dimensions.

I know the back seats are different, the bottom seat cushion is something like 6” shorter.

I used to have a lightning and I really liked the leather/suede combo. So I want to do that with the katzkins, my kennel plan is not going to pan out.

I ordered an 802A Scab, mainly for the air conditioned seat option. I’d have preferred to order it without rear seats if possible as I may end up removing one side for gear storage. I’ll probably never have more than 3 people in the truck.
