Good deal or no?

I have a 2019 Bighorn with cloth interior. These are Built To Serve edition seat covers that would replace the cloth. For sale for $800… worth it or no? Installation itself is probably another $600-$1000 at an auto upholstery shop (can’t do it myself.)

Offer the seller 15% less and see what they say.

You can also check to see what something from another vendor sells for like katzkins(sp?)

Gotcha.
I would be sticking with these because the OEM Built to Serve interior seat design is my personal favorite… it’s also very hard to find. I’m sure the full Katzkin leather is probably a lot more expensive?
I asked here because I have never seen a BTS interior being sold before so no clue what the cost would be.

When I priced out the katskins a couple years ago they were right around $2000 installed for the covers I wanted. $800 seems reasonable because of the relative rarity of it. My opinion on things like this is if it's worth that much to you then it's a good deal. If you feel it's too much you can always offer less like Scap suggested.

Update… I got them for $750, they are being shipped now. Install looks like anywhere from $600-$1000 from all the quotes I’ve received... does that sound about right?

I think $600 sounds reasonable. But of course it depends on how long the job takes and the shop rate they charge.

Found a super reputable shop recommended to me by an auto mechanic friend to do the whole thing for $600. Seat covers go in next week. Pics to follow!
