LSeat vs AutoBerry
Good morning folks.
I'm wondering if anyone has heard of or has any experience with this company and their product? (see link)
I need to replace my seat covers. Still have a ways to go in a few directions but I want to be free to hit the road when I want and like come late Spring, at least. I have been seeing the AutoBerry covers since I started this journey but I came across these and,, am excited to save $350 bucks.
What say you?

I ordered replacement 2005 Honda Pilot seat covers through Lseat. The perforations in the seat itself finally gave in. I would not opt for perforations in leather seats in the future. I don't see how it's a viable long term design.
It's a fine product. The fit was great, however some of the details needed to attach the leather to the seat was off, but workable. For the money, I would be completely satisfied with them.
I was able to install it myself, and it allowed me to repair a seat heating wire while I was in there.
I might start a new thread to discuss what should be done when reskinning a seat. I thought that the seat foam would be tired and in bad shape, but the new leather covers really tightened everything back up. The seat foam was apparently still in great shape!
While I'm in the seat, I want to replace the seat heater with something warmer, a new lumbar system, the old rubber bladder in the driver one burst after I tried repairing it with bike tube patch. I think I've settled on which products I'll use, I thought I'd share so people can either comment/improve, or learn for future attempts.

Simple, under $10, and worked a treat.
Cheers

Hello All. Thanks for the replies!
I redid my math,,, lol,,, actually just DID the math and it's $450 bucks in saving with LSeat - not $350... Significant difference - at least for me. But still, it makes me ask - what's the difference between the two??? Really...! I ordered swatches.
Thank you TP... I've spoken to Jeremy at Pauls,,, hours worth of convo (love that accent) lol,,, and he has sold me the seat idea. It's just too rich for my blood (and bank account). I have been squirreling away pennies (I thought I remembered him talking a little higher than $800 for seat covers tho) and had decided to just get all carpeting from them at Pauls... He is holding my order for carpets now.
So, I called the number on the site today. Left a message. I got a 'Google phone" phone number and recorded message. Have not heard back. That concerned me. I think Google offers a free phone number...? Haha,,, maybe that and other savings points is how they can offer their goods so cheap? Who knows!?
still not sure what ta do!

Hey PrinceMarko...
I actually thought I was replying to my own thread (see below) and I clicked reply on a "RELATED THREAD"... Yours...

I would like to hear a little more on what the limitations were to the LSeat product... Even direct me to some links of others experiences. I haven't been able to find much....

If that question was directed at me,,, Paul quoted 7sumpthing with custom work for the carpets - the bordering, seams, edging or - I forget the proper term - he can and will do in different colors. He says that they bought all of the remaining xjs carpeting stock directly from Jaguar... So, $7hundred something ain't bad in my book.... Its carpeting from the back windshield to the front up under the dash. Several individual pieces.

Items just came in the mail today. So far I'm pleased...
Nervous as he'll about the install though... Center console leather and all... No seat card backs though. The did indicate they would be included in my email questions and exchanges. $299 as opposed to $750... I'll have to make due with the resurfaced and made pretty backs I have.
Thanks for all the advise and suggestions folks. I'll be back when I'm up to my eyeballs in foam and hog ties, lol
