When it comes to custom auto leather, there are numerous ways to combine personality and comfort in your vehicle’s interior design. Among these, you’ll need to choose which type of leather inserts—the individual sections of each seat—fit your preferences best. Specializing in all things interior, Whitehurst Auto Trim & Upholstery in Dothan, AL, is happy to explain the differences between common insert options.  

6 Seat Insert Options to Consider When Choosing Custom Auto Leather

1. Single-Tone

If you’re going for an elegant, uniform look, single tone inserts are best. Essentially, this means each seat in the vehicle will be the same color throughout.

2. Inserts

The “insert” style shouldn’t be confused with the broad concept of leather seat “inserts.” This look places a pop of color in the middle of the seat and back, which is surrounded by a single tone for contrast.

3. Combo

Combo arrangements build on the style of the insert by using two different tones for contrast. However, instead of bordering one solid color with another, this option extends the central tone to the very edge of the seat.

4. Body

The body style features a long strip of color along the middle of the back and the seat. A different tone is used for the headrest and edges of the seat.

5. Centers

If you like the body style but want a longer strip, center inserts may be right for you. Centers follow the same look as body inserts, but include a colored headrest to match the central tone.

6. Face

Face inserts offer a bold contrast by covering the entire front-facing segments of the seat in one color. The sides of the seat and headrest, however, are covered in a different auto upholstery tone.

Of course, leather seat inserts are just one way to customize your ride.
