Any long-term reports on Leatherseats.com upholstery

The seats in my FD have already been re-upholstered with covers from Leatherseats.com, so this thread is not about making a decision. I'm just curious, since these covers have been available for some time now...How are they holding up long-term? Has anyone seen premature wear or seam separation?

Subbing to this. I was looking at them the other day. Will probably pick up a set next year sometime along with some seat heaters for next winter. They look to be rather high quality.

the red and black would look like nice matches to the mazda 3rd gen red interior.

Bought my kit without getting color swatches. they touted exact match but it wasn't close. the leather is a rougher grain from stock. However I would use them again. their sewing was excellent.

word of advice. get several color swatches from them before ordering, the dye lots change and may be different from what appears on their website. I tried darkening the leather using conditioner, neats foot oil but to no avail. so what you get in the sample patches is pretty much what you might expect to get in a finished product.
