Default Cloth to Leather - 2005 Accord?

Has anyone done an upgrade to leather seats for their Accord? I have a 2005 Accord LX, and the cloth is looking a little dirty and worn. I love leather seating, but to take the seats to a custom upholstery shop is going to be very expensive. Ebay has this company that advertises leather upgrades...basically you take the cloth off yourself and slip the leather over the seats and attach. It looks somewhat complicated, but I have never worked with upholstery before, so maybe it's easy. The leather covers looks to cost around $500, but not sure if that is the best way to go or not.

welcome to the forums.. the best think in my opinion would be to get it professionally done.. they will last a lot longer and wont wrinkle as easily.. or you could shop around for leather seats from the same style accord and buy those and place them inside your car..
