I don't think it's worth the money, but each to their own.

Re: Black or No Black
Shoot. Too expensive? Interiors are cheap (relatively). Take it to a good reupholstery shop and let them do their magic. You can do some custom stuff that will make it more than just black.
I say go for it.
Also, remember, a little black shoe polish will keep those seat looking perfect long after most other colors show their wear!!
Just tint those windows to keep the heat down!!

Re: Black or No Black
Black looks nice, though, but shows dirt & dust. Wheat is easier to maintain. I'd like a nice medium grey.

Re: Black or No Black
I have the wheat and illegal window tint and I still have a hard time keeping cool in the summer.
The a/c sucks when you aren't driving and it gets hot fast.
I do question wether black seats would be hotter because I don't think it is sunlight on the seats that is making my truck hot.
Some of you that have had both wheat and black, is there any difference in the heat due to the seat color?

I had wheat then changed to Black. I didn't notice any difference. HOT is HOT, either way!!!

I paid roughly $4000 CDN to change out my wheat interior to black. That included the black headliner. You can see the change here:
