It would seem that an auto upholstery specialist should be able to dye your existing tan seats black.

I would expect the "leather" is a cover that can be replaced without switching out the seat frame. I had a car one time that was broken into and the broken glass cut the leather. They replaced the leather portion and they simply slide onto the existing frame.

Black seats, you don't spend summers in dixieland, do you? Them babys will get the back of your legs to at least medium rare in July.

the reason i wanna change from tan to black is i work in the oil patch and u can see every little spot on the seat when it gets dirty . I live in southren alberta where we see up to +45 C in the summer but it doesnt bother me if my seats get a little hot in the summer. Plus i like the look of black leather over tan
