doors and seats

[cmwarner2003]

Hey guys, I'm new on here. My wife has a 2003 corolla s. The seats are getting pretty bad and the chrome on the door handles(inside) has come off. I am looking to replace these, hopefully with leather if anyone can help. I cant seem to find any of the door handles and dont know what to do for seats. please shed some light if you can. and does anyone know if like some is300 seats from 03-08 would work??? as an easy swap. thanks

The chrome door handles are not common. But you can find them on eBay every now and again. You can pretty easily find leather seat material on eBay also. They're direct-fit covers, just like the factory uses.

yeah, I haven't been able to find the handles at all. As for the seats are they easy to install? I was really wondering if like is300 seats from the same years would work

Different seat frames will likely not work, not without modification anyway. The leather covers aren't all that easy -- the seats must be taken out to do it. I hear it takes a good day, or at least a whole afternoon, to do it. Many people leave it to a professional.
