Thanks for the replies. For anyone else contemplating this, I also queried the H.A.M.B forum and about this and got a number of replies indicating dying (or painting) the leather works fine and lasts. Most of them recommend a product called SEM. So I will investigate it and Robert's suggestion regarding colorplus. I did purchase the seats (Audi buckets - because the Hurst floor mount for the 3 speed OD trans goes too far back and would contact the regular seat). Again thanks,
