Question What are new Leather powered/heated SC300 front seats worth?

I was looking at my front seats today and was thinking to myself, how much are my 1995 Lexus SC300 seats (with mounting bracket hardware) worth?

They have brand new leather, are powered, and heated too.

I'm considering getting some sportier seats with better side support to not slide around in during "spirited driving" hence the question ..

I'm assuming you mean 100-200 each? I just looked on ebay and someone bought new leather seat covers for $349 . What are you basing your "100-200 bucks" assessment on?

We'd like to see some pics to determine the condition of the seats and the quality of the new leather install. Otherwise everyone is gonna give you low ridiculous prices.

Yeah each...reupholstered won't sell for as much as an oem in good condition. Also depends on quality of leather. I sold one for 140 oem tan leather in great condition, fully functional. Most people would rather get supras or rsx or aftermarket seats for same price.

I'd be interested in purchasing them pending a review of photos.

How about you stop fishing & just post them up in the classifieds .

When you sell them, then that's what they were worth.

well if you think your gonna get your $349.00 back plus cost of labour and cost of seat (which is where I think this is going) then your wrong.

Couple hundred depending on condition.

The problem with your sets is they arent very sought after...people tent to swap them out not in. Especially if they arent black
