    For those that have had it done for their new PiPs - how much is aftermarket leather?

    If I recall correctly, I paid $1250 (that was $50 more than usual because of the 2-tone).

    How do you like them? The Clazzios are just slip-over covers, right? They aren't upholstered to the seats like the Katzkin covers are, correct? So it's easy to insta the Clazzio covers, but they aren't like factory leather seats, if I'm correct.

    Half the price or less and they are very nice everyone thinks I have leather. They don't just look like seat covers.

    I wrote Clazzio, it seems their present seat covers won't work with the PIP, but they think they will have them available for the PIP by this coming summer. There's an extra cooling vent in the back seat for the bigger traction battery that isn't on the regular 3rd gen Prius. So unless you want to take the chance that the one vent hole is in the right place, and you'll have to fabricate the second one yourself, we'll just have to wait. If you read Toyota's manual they say, not to put anything over the heated seats, of course you don't have to turn them on!

    The Clazzio seat covers look great :)
