Katzkin Install?

Reformed Wrangler

Nov 19, 2021

Mornin' y'all,

Just wondering if anyone has had a Katzkin install done before (bonus points if on a '21 Bronco), and if you might have an answer to a couple questions for me:

Were you happy with the end result?
Anything you weren't happy about?
Was your a mobile install? If so, how'd it go?
Are they able to use the OEM locations for seat heater switches on the Bronco, or do they have to make new holes for the switches?
Any other recommendations for other companies to do this sort of work? (Specifically, a "non-cheap" solution to heated seats on my new baby)

Thanks!

Some of these questions can be answered by Katz...I'm following to learn about the quality. I cancelled the leather upgrade because it wasn't all leather, I couldn't get the originally advertised package and I want full leather in the colors I want. The Katz was quoted a few hundred dollars less than the Ford upgrade. My biggest disappointment right now with Katz is they will not put a Ford pony or Bronco on the seats because it is a violation of copyright. Man, I see that so much that I wouldn't think Ford would care. How many ways have people used these logos without issue? If a SEMA build was done with Katzkin, I'm sure a Pony would be branded or pressed into the leather seats.

Can you possibly find a 3rd party to stitch the Bronco on the covers prior to putting them on? I suppose it would still be a copyright infringement.:(

I've been looking. I don't understand the copyright thing. I've seen pics/videos where the other OEM logos are embossed in the seat leather.
