I'm up for giving most things a go, provided that not much could go wrong if something does go wrong. I'd say its the cost that scares away most people.

If someone in Sydney needs a hand, I have installed the leather.

Only problem is I never seem to have much time on weekends :(

Hopefully going to have it on within the next 1-2 weeks when i can find the time.

But from what I can tell it looks really good... great quality and something like 1600 photos of instructions!

@JustinR and anyone who has bought this: A word of advice. I may never have done leather seat covers but I have completely covered my car in dynamat. This required the stripping back of the whole car and applying the layers of dynamat against the metallic shell of the car.

I really took my time.
I did one door a week.
I then did the roof.
Then the bonnet and boot.

DO NOT attempt to rush through things.
That leads to disaster and disgust of the size of the task.

Wise words that I intend to follow

I didn't wait this long to rush these seats

From someone who has done this I agree with Ofey do the job one piece at a time, don't pull every seat out of the car then start. Trust me your hands will not handle doing it all in one go, mine took me three weekends to complete. I done mine about 12months ago but still remember most of the steps I took so if you need to the help PM me and I will see what I can do. Best advice is go over the instructions and pictures a couple of times for each set before you start.
