    I bought a 2008 prius with leather seats (car and price was good). But I don't like leather seats, so want to swap them for cloth. What is the easiest and cheapest way? Since it is a downgrade, I like to swap it for - well almost - free.

    Drive to SD and swap them out with mine. haha

    I took the leather out of my 2008 and put the leather in my 2007 that came with cloth. My 2008 is just sitting parked..totaled..

    I'd perhaps add pictures, but just keep advertising you want to do so.

    Somebody has cloth seats that would like leather.

    Your upholstery Anti-Doppelganger has got to exist somewhere.

    PS.
    I'm kind of strange from the standpoint that I also like the cloth seats. I think they get a bad rap. People get "sold" on the idea or perception that they aren't as nice..but IMO their is a lot of advantage to a durable cloth seat.

    I love the Prius cloth seats.
