How to install Katzkin Leather seats in a Ford F-150 XLT plus my best tips and thoughts for success. I was tired of the cloth seats in my 2015 F-150 always getting dirty and being hard to clean so I decided to convert to Katzkin leather interior. This was a DIY installation of the Katzskin and I provide my 5 best tips for installation success based on what I learned of the process.

Where can I buy these at ?
Yup they wre just need to have the time and patience j believe i will havr a hell of a time doing it. Gez i need to borrow my moms csr tk gk tk work when i start doing that to mine. Lol
Great video – how can I get a KOCH hat like yours? Michael Koch
Did they tighten up after some heat and time?
Those turned out great, bloody hands and all! I think I will just pay someone to do this, looks like way too much work!
Same here. After watching your video O realized I have to pay someone for this job lol. Even a DIY guy have limits! Great video! Watched it full!
Great video. You can buy those U clips. It's easier to replace them vs reusing them
Pro tip, the foam for the bottom of the drivers seat is readily available from ford dealers for like 75 bucks. I change the foam in my 2017 f-250 every two years since new.
How did you do the rear headrests with the fold down buttons?- did you pop them out/what was the technique you used? Thanks!!
I just bought a truck with katzkin leather..what do you use too clean em with? I do have a little wear on driver side edge….wondering if i should just replace that seat
I did my 2016 F150 Screw a few years ago with Katskin and they still look like new. I did mine in about 5 hours including removal and reinstall of the seats (I had a console). But that jump seat can easily take hours more. I helped a friend with his and that thing was a nightmare. If you plan to do it yourself go into it knowing your going to just cut apart your cloth covers. Like he said do not bother trying to save them. For the headrests use a plastic bag and a vacuum to compress them it wont do much but that with using a heat gun to warm up the material makes its slide easy. And yeah your fingers will be raw and sore for days!
My goodness man, you did an absolute phenomenal job!! And thank you for making this video for all of us to see you work and struggle with this, fantastic man!! You did a great Job!! and deserve the $1k you saved by doing this yourself, spend it on your family, have a great time with $1K create those memories!!
Wow!! Absolutely the best man!!
Fantastic video. I feel this is something I can do after seeing your tips and tricks. It’s such a price premium to get a Lariat for the sole purpose of leather seats.
I ordered mine for I’m a construction worker but love to use my truck for family events
Because it’s so easy to clean no doubt leather is a great choice
Great job!!
“A DIY motivator “ I like that
Just installed RoadWire leather seats in my pickup. They look incredible.
Did you use the heat gun for the seats or only the console?
Thanks for DIY installation video of Katzkin.
Do you think that generally it will be the similar procedure for Jeep Liberty 2011?
