Anyone have much experience with getting seats rebuilt locally? I have some FJ40 seats that I would like to have recovered / rebuilt..

Any suggestions or ideas on how much this will cost?

Thanks.

usually costs about six hundred bucks to have a pair of bucket seats reupholstered, although the guy we used moved back to Jamaica

I did the 2 front seats and the rear bench in my 80 series Landcruiser last month. The leather kit came from Katzkins and cost me about $700. I did it myself, took about 12 hours all said and done.

I looked into getting my dodge seats rebuilt, way to much coin for me. The drivers seat foam was trashed after 6 or 7 years. Found it way cheaper to find seats out of a wrecker. A pair of nice VW leather heated seats for $250.
