Katzkin Leather Interior FAQs

Got questions about our leather interior or if they're truly for you? We've got the answers. Read below for common Leather Interior FAQs, how they're installed, and more.


What is a new Katzkin interior?

A Katzkin interior is fully custom, premium leather interior to replace your cloth or old leather interior.

Can’t I only get leather from a dealership when buying a new car?

Nope! We can fully remove any interior and completely replace it with the Katzkin leather you choose. We can match the factory color(s) or help you design a fully custom interior.



How much does a leather interior cost?

The estimated price to upgrade your vehicle with a professionally installed, premium Katzkin leather interior typically starts at $1500 but depends on your vehicle and the options you select. This is a fraction of the cost of a luxury trim package on a new car.

Is Katzkin real leather?

Yes, Katzkin interiors are real, genuine leather. IT’s top-grain aniline-dyed leather, produced in Brazil from hand-selected hides of local original. Katzkin also offers non-leather and vegan designs too! Most designs are available in a non-leather synthetic material as an alternative.

Can I install it myself?

No, these are not seat covers. Katkin interiors are professionally-installed. We remove all of the cloth from the seats and replace it with your new premium leather interior. Our technicians are specially trained on exactly how to install Katzkin leather and how to do it right.

Does Katzkin offer interiors for all cars and trucks?

They make interiors for over 2500 vehicles, covering virtually all mid-market vehicles on the road today.

How long does install take?

Generally, installation of your new interior will take 2 days or less.

How will my new interior affect my airbag and OCS system?

We perform a detailed inspection of each seat and Katzkin interiors are designed to maintain the integrity of the original airbag and OCS systems.


Will leather add re-sell value to my car?

If given a choice, most consumers prefer leather and will look for that option in a used car. Leather not only provides visual appeal and comfort but also has tremendous practical value due to ease of clean up and maintenance.

Are Katzkin interiors covered with a warranty?

Yes. Every Katzkin leather interior is backed by a manufacturer 3 year/36,000 mile national warranty. Plus, the install is covered as long as you own your vehicle by our Lifetime Workmanship guarantee. You can also purchase an extended warranty at the time of your installation.


Can I add seat heaters or seat cooling?

You sure can! We offer OEM quality seating temperature control systems that are compatible and can be incorporated in your leather interior. Our heat only system offers a high and low level of warmth, and our heating & cooling dual system provides 3 levels of heat and 3 levels of air-conditioned comfort. Ask us about vehicle compatibility.

How does a Katzkin interior compare to a factory-installed leather interior?

Katzkin interiors are produced from the finest imported automotive leathers and are specifically engineered to meet or exceed factory performance specifications. The quality and craftsmanship is tested and trusted by Chrysler for their entire family of vehicles (Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, RAM and Fiat) as well as the Ford Motor Company.
