Default cost to install leather seat covers

Has anyone had leather seat covers professionally installed in their car or truck. I'm thinking about replacing the cloth seats in an 07 Silverado Crew Cab and found a decent priced set of covers online, but I don't have a clue as to what an upholstry shop would charge to pull the cloth and install the leather covers.

Additionally, can anyone reccomend a good upholstry shop in the Houston area, preferably within 20 miles of the Galleria.

If they're the right ones and fit like stock, its super easy...

If they're off the shelve type... it definately takes some custom work...

If its just a cover install... I would say no more than $40 a seat... surely

According to the seller, they are the "actual interior replacement" covers. The seller's feedback was overwhelming positive, so I don't doubt that they will fit without any modifications

Try it yourself... it aint hard. I don't know about those style, but find you some hog rings and a set of pliers for them.

I do interior work... installing covers like that should be a friggin breeze. Just make sure they're good and warm first.

Are they Leather or Vinyl or Cloth?
