What type of Leatherique problems?
Was it a fill cracks and dye situation? That is tricky. I just conditioned mine with Leatherique. They feel and look great. Lot of work. I did it twice on the front seats. Just interested.

That's plug and play, baby. I think he's looking for something like $500 + shipping for the set of fronts, but don't quote me on it (if they're even still for sale). Reupholstery kits and shops are all going to be up in that region, if not much higher, for one seat. Go figure.
Or, try something like Leatherique or Color Plus. I had bad results with leatherique; others have done better. I decided to forget about restoring the old seats and am currently in the process of swapping in a set of memory seats (plus steering column and mirrors) from a '94 740.
