Here's a picture of my new seats. The seats themselves are much more comfortable than the stock seats but there are some drawbacks. The shoulder bolsters are too wide so they do rub against the side pillars causing the seatbelt to not retract well. The seats however did not solve my height...

Since the leather in most all cars is a coated leather you can use an all purpose cleaner to clean the leather. I have had great success with using some very cheap power purple on some leather to get it clean. Clean leather should not shine but be soft with a matte finish. Here's the steering...

Best leather cleaner I've ever used that is far above any of the mentioned leather products is leatherique. I haven't found a single leather cleaner that can clean and restore leather as well. I little pricy compared to cheap cleaner but it works wonders and is worth the extra pennys Home Page...

Here is my 01 with 99 talls

Thinking about getting some red lug nuts and red plasti dip for the emblems to add a bit more red to complement the pin stripe - make it look not so alone on the truck.

The red stripe was something I wanted to try just to break up the all black look I see so many people doing, something a little different. It took a few days to really enjoy it but I like it more now. Missing center cap on the front driver side is why I took them all off when I plastic dipped...
