    I miss my leather upholstery in my Avalon. Can I buy factory leather front seats for my 2006 Prius and simply replace the fabric covered ones?

    You can replace OEM fabric seat covers with OEM or aftermarket leather covers, but installation is not a "simple" matter. It's a job best left for the professional auto upholsterer, so you should also price out installation charges before you commit to buying replacement leather covers. You should read prius2go's recent thread on his experience with installing leather covers:
