Default best way to switch cloth out to leather

I have been searching for a used mustang for a couple weeks now, hard to find exactly what I want, I defiantly do not like the canvas work truck looking seat fabric that comes in these cars, I have heard people mention new take off for leather seats however they don't seem to have them now days, any other suggestions on a reasonable way to switch out the cloth seats for leather if I find a cloth seated car that I want.

Well, the easiest way would just be to wait until you find a leather equipped car . . . Would probably be the cheapest too.

search for Katzin Leather seat covers

they specialize in producing top notch leather skins to replace your cloth seats


a great product, and people who have them usually have nothing but good things to say about them. Mellowyellow just did a set

I'm not sure if they have anymore sets, but newtakeoff.com use to have the factory leather seat covers. I helped put a set on my friend's 2006 Deluxe GT that came with the cloth seats, and it wasnt a hard job. It took 3 of us about 2-3 hours to get them swapped. I think it cost him about $400, and that was about 1-2 years ago.
