My dealer said it would be 1500$ to add leather to sr5 front and rear seats. CAn i get a quality job for 1000$ or is it really that much. Also, afermarket running boards are 400???

I might go w the sr5 and upgrade it vs the ltd.

About right unless you do it yourself.
 
I paid $1,495. Looking around these leather kits sell for $800~1k, so I'm fine paying a little bit more for a professional install. From what I've read it's a pain in the ass to install these kits.
 
If you want your side airbags to deploy properly, the seats not fall out after 400 miles, and the leather not look like a necrotic scrotum after a year, pay extra.

Or you can go to Vato Zone and get a kit and botch it yourself for 500 bucks.

I redid the leather on the wife's Limited driver's seat when the baby didn't feel like waiting to emerge before she made it to the ER for about 500 bucks, factor in 500 bucks per front seat and about 400-600 for the back.
 
That is the dealer retail price. Shop charges dealer 1100. My dealer called leather shop for me and gave me their cost. I negotiated down and paid nstaller directly 1050 for katzkins. They wanted 450 for heated seats installed. But I just bought on ebay for 70 and they charged 200 for install. So total was 1320 plus tax.
 
Just got ours back! Really happy with the results. We chose a color they called 'dark charcoal'. Goes nicely with the mag Gray exterior and interior accents.
