Those look great! For cost reference, this is what a $745 set of Katzkin from an online dealer looks like, installed for free over a weekend. This is my second set I installed. 1st set was my 1 week old 2017 F150 and did my 19 Superduty a couple years ago. Sore hands for a week afterwards.

The only thing that put me off on a Katzkin interior was the loss of remote heated seats. They'll still give you heated seats on the installation, but it won't be your factory heated seats it'll be an aftermarket heated seat element that you'll manually trigger ( like back in the 90s for those of you who were in the 90s) and the whole point of remote start for me is warming that car up in the winter.

Otherwise, I think it's a fantastic job they do and I think the price is not only fair, it's pretty good for what you're getting. I hate that my Bronco Heritage sport came with those cloth seats and the first thing I wanted to do was put some Navy leather in there, which would have been about 2000 bucks, but I ended up not being sure whether I was even going to stay in the car or not.

I believe the heated seats do not turn on until you actually get in and push the Start Button. Only heat or A/C is actually working with remote start.

Actually, my BS seats heat up fast and hot. By the time I get into the car on a remote start, those seats are toasty- sometimes way more toasty than I want. I use the those heated seats sparingly because though I look pretty good for my age, I really don't want that kind of 'hot ass'.
When you actually press the ignition button, the heated seats which have already been on on a low setting, fully activate at level three, prompting you to turn it off immediately.

Looks great too! By the way, what center console cover is that, please? I would like to order one, but likely in a solid color, but if you have a link to your's, I can figure it out. Thank you!

Mine are toasty when I get in after a remote start.
So are mine, and it's been chilly in Indiana lately 🥶

Love the remote start!
