Besides a nice set of seats out of salvage yard,or piecing from dealer(megga big$$$)...For really nice leather kit would be katzkin,but a set would be close to a grand if they even make them for 3rd gens any more.And its for a full set,then you need professional installer.
But,your best option for leather maybe gt covers/great covers,The pics are no longer up on this thread,but I remember they turned out very nice:

I love my gt seat covers, I didn't want leather so I got tundra fabric. My toyota dealer is who I got mine through and they had samples of everthing available (toyota fabrics) might give that a try.

I saw this thread and ordered some swatches from GT Covers. Ultrafast ship time; requested them Tues., got them today.
Anyway, for the Oak interior, you have a few options, all of which are a solid match.
Velour: N3 Oak is almost perfect, with a slight patterning in the cloth, and I think this is the color pictured above
T17 Oak is solid colored and matches the darker tone in the seats perfectly.
Endura: C3 Tan is a great match and is probably what i'll go with. It matches better than the 100 Taupe from Wet Okole, and this material seems like it would be more durable than neoprene.
Leatherette: L4 Tan is identical to the T17 Oak velour.

WoW those dont even look like covers they fit so good!
I have '94 4runner limited buckets in my 87 pickup. I love em cuz they're not broken down and no tears! (score for 50 bucks for both) but I've been runnign seat covers on them most of their new life until this year when i took them off and then finally a wheeln trip got them dirty ... sad so i put the covers back on (which are a PITA to take off put on etc which is why i never put them back on in the first place)
anyway.. my covers blow but they match kinda .
anyway, way offtopic but im bored and felt like sharing =) ... besides they were cheap!
