New here, but thought I’d share my Katzkin install results as I haven’t seen a lot of people going with the brown leather seats yet. I think it turned out great. This is their “Autumn” color with Black wings to better match the interior, and I ordered the leatherette Bronco patches off Etsy and had the install shop sew them on.

Added the heated/cooled seats option and it’s already a noticeable difference in the Arizona heat to turn on the cooling. A bit louder than I thought, sounds like a small fan (which, I suppose it is) but not any louder than the road noise! Looking forward to taking the top off this fall.

These look great! I'm thrilled you shared what "Autumn" looks like.

I'm going light brown something vs. the Area 51 paintjob, and I think it's going to look incredible... just haven't figured out which exact color I'm going to pick. Your photos put Autumn dead straight in the running when it wasn't even on the radar before.

As someone that wishes he could get a MGV with carpet floors (probably the only person) I am offended by this thread!

Just kidding, looks awesome! The cooled seat option would be great in Sacramento area too.

What did that run you?
Just over $3000 once all the labor costs are added in. Without heated/cooled seats you could easily do a similar build for closer to $1500.

Man, that Autumn color looks tremendous. Thanks for sharing. Eventually I'm doing the heated/cooled Katzkins on my base. When you're sitting inside and can see all the black and gray of the interior does the light brown look out of place?

Would love to know how hot that color leather gets.
I love the MGV seats but they get so hot! Being black doesn’t help.
I was looking into Katzkin for a lighter color and the cooled option.
Wish there was a way to keep the MGV and have it cooled….

Exactly.
Cooled seats would be nice, but there's a reason I chose MGV over leather.

Fellow AZ resident here. What shop did you use for the install? The seats look amazing BTW!
