Jacksonbase Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 where is the best place to find replacement leather (on a budget) for a 2000 pathfinder le? I've checked a couple of junkyard and have come up empty. Also checked ebay and everything is complete set. Just need seat bottom . any sources out there that are resonable? thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quaintbucket Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 I had the same issue as you and ended up putting a seat cover on it... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrariowner123 Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 (edited) Pretty much the only way to get just he seat bottom is to see if someone will part with it, unlikely as they are going to want to just sell the whole thing. Or buying an OEM replacement. I removed being quoted like $800 for just the bottom for my leather and heated, 96. Pretty much replacing the whole thing is the only viable option -Kyle Edited September 9, 2014 by ferrariowner123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksonbase Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 FYI Found a good solution. Seat bottom from passenger side is the same except for the frame. THe mounting holes are off about 2 " I just cut the hog rings off and transferred seat foam and leather to the D/S seat frame reattached and bolted back in. Looks like new. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrariowner123 Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 Good tip, does the heating element transfer too? The bottom part of my heated seat doesn't work. So I've been looking for a decent shape grey leather seat but on the driver side. So if the passenger side will work, that should save me a good chunk of time and money. -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksonbase Posted January 21, 2015 Author Share Posted January 21, 2015 yes heating element same on d/s and p/s . I got lucky and picked up a heated seat bottom for $50.0. - 4 bolts for seat . I think I unplugged 4 or 5 connectors. then 4 bolts hold seat cusion to frame. Its kind of a PITA to get cushion back in frame. The frame mounts have swivels etc for electric seat movement and I think I only cussed 3x to get seat bottom back in. It took about 1hr but I took my time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ferrariowner123 Posted February 1, 2015 Share Posted February 1, 2015 Just picked up a MINT passenger heated seat! So excited to try it out. I pulled the seat at the yard to see how hard it would be to switch it. Wasn't hard at all. So this should be a nice simple switch. Thanks again for the tip, if this works my heated but will be so appreciative! -Kyle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
