I am interested in doing a conversion to my cloth seat 99 Ram. I'd like to do a complete Katzkin leather interior. Has anyone paid to have their 98.5-02 Dodge Ram done? I'm interested in seeing pictures.

I looked into it way back but couldn't justify the expense then. At the time, I just had the lower seat cushions redone from factory leather to regular vinyl.
It has held up very well but I'm now at the point of needing the upper seat backs redone and the driver seat needs the foam replaced.

Think about having step bars installed if you don't have any... it helps to keep from rolling/sliding off of the seat base when stepping out and really will save the base seat cushions.

Decided to pull the trigger and go for Katzkin Leather. I have my installation appointment soon. I'll post up some pictures of the results.

I am interested to see how it works out for you.

Ok everyone, here it is: My new Katzkin leather upholstery conversion. The shop was able to knock this out in two full days. I got the truck back right before Christmas and couldn't be more happier with the results. I went with a color called, "Mist Grey". Once I saw the finished results, the grey color I picked seemed lighter in color. I picked this color on their website. It still looks great and gives a 2-tone look inside the cab. The upholstery shop also installed heat elements in the seats while everything was torn apart. The overall cost was fairly pricey, but I figured it was worth it for a vehicle I really love and don't plan to get rid of. I rather have my ol' Dodge than some $80,000+ new truck. I'm happy that I finally pulled the trigger and got this done.

Wow looks great.
I see you did the back seat and door panels as well. Nice looking results.

Wow... that looks really nice. Did they also do the center console top cover?
I'm sure it was pricey... I'm guessing $2k....do you mind disclosing what it cost ya?

High Bid, you are right on the money. Included in the Katzkin kit was the center console and door panels. Plus, I requested heated seats.

That looks really nice with the two tone. I just did my drivers bottom and cushion with a factory correct agate synthetic leather cover.

That looks fantastic!

We just picked up a 2001 with a leather interior that needs work. Will have to check this out.
