Katskin seat covers

[Raceguy388]

I’m looking at a Bronco raptor that has everything but the leather seats in it. Wondering if anyone has went with katskin leather seat covers and if your happy with them?

I have Katskins on my current ride and had them on my Ranger before I sold it. The material and construction is very good and I had no issues with wear problems.
I can tell you the installer will make all the difference in how they turn out. They need to be heated up and stretched tight when applied or you end up with wrinkles like I have on my Bronco seats but had none of on the Ranger. Ask them about their process and if they don't mention warming up the leather and stretching I'd look for someone else.

The 2024 I recently purchased did not have leather seats and came with Katskins. They fit like a glove, the quality is exceptional, and I am very happy with them.

@Raceguy388 good question and @TemplarAZ thanks for responding with a pic. Your seat covers look awesome!. I just order a 2026 Raptor and I'm considering going with Katzkin Seat covers as well.

Take a closer look at the side bolsters poor fit ....looks bubbled. To solve the pattern / sewing defect the installer needs to glue / add additional foam on the bolster areas and any other baggy areas.

After spending big$ on Raptor just get custom made for double the price and get 4 times better quality and fit.

I will never order Katzkins again even though they were also the contracted installer through a sub they bent over backwards to make poor fabrication fit right but it wasted a lot of my time with multiple visits over 90 days.

Could have easily paid for custom with the time it wasted, and aggravation.

I have the Katzkin with the Degreez for cooling. They have been working great.

Mine are great, no problems and had matching race red stitching. A real upgrade over the stock cloth

How do the katskins work w the stock cloth heated seats ? Still feel the heat?

They work great. I used the Bronco stock heaters not the Katskins

My Katzkin seats are noticably more padded than my cloth seats were, and I can now actually use setting number 3 without looking for a burn center afterwards.
So, it does reduce the heat a bit... But before I found the high setting painful and unusable.

I am considering replacing my OBX leather. I miss the air-conditioned seats from my old F150. I am curious what you think of them.

I will have to go back and get the exact numbers but I believe it was around $4k for the covers front and back and the Degreez in the fronts. I tried many of the cooling pads that plugged into the 12V but nothing worked.

I love them. They work very well. Most days I am running them on the lowest of 3 settings because anything higher for a period of time is too cold. I am not saying they are up to the level of the ones from the F150 but they are very good in my opinion.

I can’t get them to start with the remote start but they cool pretty quickly.
