Default Classic Soft Trim Leather seats

Hey everyone!
A couple of months ago I removed the factory seat covers (cloth with vinyl bolsters in SE package) and installed Classic Soft Trim leather with grey contrast stitching/preforated inserts. After the first couple of HOT summer days I realize I miss the cloth seats because the leather gets very, very hot after the car sits out in the sun.
So...planning to go back to the factory seat covers... I will then be posting the leather covers for sale. The originally cost me ~$700, which included door inserts and headrest covers. Since the door inserts were installed (glued) I cannot include these in the sale. The OEM headrest covers were also glued so they had to be cut to remove. I would be will ing to part with the leather covers for $250 and consider swapping out my leather trimmed headrests for the factory vinyl trimmer headrests?
Any takers? Price may be negotiable.
I can be contacted at noelacramosATgmail.com

I live in Phoenix and the heat is why I would never buy a car with leather seats. Sit down on leather seats with a pair of shorts on and you end up with burns on the backs of your legs.

Ok, no takers so I will make the as offer 'sweet' as possible:
If anyone is interested in swapping out their factory black vinyl trimmed headrests for my factory headrests which are now covered with classic soft trim black leather with grey contrast double stiching I will include at no charge all of the matching CST leather seat covers/skins.

I've decided I do not like leather (too hot/cold) and I want to re-install the factory vinyl trimmed cloth seats that came with my '08 Outie SE. Problem is, the factory headrest covers had to be trimmed off (seams cut and material pulled away from the foam core) to install the replacement leather headrest covers. If I reinstall the factory seats the slightly darker leather headrests will not match the 'old' covers!!
So, if you are interested in getting free, few months old, new looking $700+ dollar custom leather seats for your 08 - 09 outie I'll be happy to trade them for your factory vinyl trimmed headrests. If local to the Boston area I'll gladly meet up for a show and tell.

Let me know... noelramosATgmail.com
