Leather Trim Kits - Any Good?
Has anyone experience of these leather trim kits - WHITE STITCH 3X DASH TRIM LEATHER SKIN COVERS FITS LAND ROVER DEFENDER 07-14

eBay Item No. 390928941968

I'm keen to trim my Puma out in leather but struggling to justify the cost of a ready to bolt in kit (by-eck it all adds up doesn't it Smile ). Are these trimming kits any good quality / fit wise, advice would be appreciated.

Not so sure about those on eBay Confused I'd say they were cheap Chinese rubbish and probably not leather. Theres a very big price difference between those and the ones I'm buying from LRI

Yeah the ones I'm looking at are just the leather skins rather than the whole trimmed pieces that LRIS supply.

100% genuine Italian leather


£220 toward a startech wheel... or a cubby box lid and door handles and new mats...


I think they look great, not mine by the way the owner has just posted their own thread on them Smile

I'm going to try these when my piggy bank for the next upgrade fills up.


I've a garage of sound deadening and closed sell foam, tape etc for my next upgrade.


It certainly looks good enough to me? plus you get the satisfaction. Most of the others already done ask for your take off items back....so its probably all they do they are maybe just more used to it?

I got the LRI exchange kit

Click image to enlarge


They allowed me a good trade-in on my old seats (almost new though), they even arranged the courier to pick up my old ones.

The net cost was still well over £1k tho

But very pleased with them Smile
