Default RST Leather Seats

Hey guys just wondering if the dye on your leather seats faded or starting to fade.

nope...do you have tint on the truck? in FLA & TX the sun is horrible & tinted windows definately cut down on the rays shining directly on the seats & help prevent fading

Can't say that it has, but my windows are tinted as well and I also keep a sun shade in the front window, so almost no sun gets into my cab.

The only thing beginning to fade/look like crap is the red stitching on mine... its turning pink, and on the trim panel on the drivers side, its white now. Other than that, mine are good... my armrest is beginning to split too, but that wont cost near as much as restiching the seats and door panels.

Truck is mainly kept under the carport. The only thing that is fading is the drivers' seat, around where i sit at.

+1 for sunshades and a tint...also lots and lots of Maguire's leather wipes, at least on a bi-weekly basis.
