Swapped my Leather back seat out for a Cloth version. Picked it up for $115 from a 2010 donor.
As you can see in the pic, the boys car seats are putting indentions into the leather (even with the mats that help prevent this) So the Leather seats will be stored for a few years. All of the indentions have already disappeared. Just don't think they would have after a couple years with car seats back there.

The Cloth ones looked pretty filthy upon delivery (like they had sat in a dirt pile for a while). Vacuumed, and steam cleaned 3 times. Look great, for what little will be seen anyways.

Good idea. I was going to mention covering the backs of the front seats (my kids' footprints are all over them), but it looks like you've already taken care of that.:thumbsup:

Those back seats aren't leather. The only leather in these cars is on the front seats and only on the parts you sit on. The rest is cheap vinyl.
