The glued fabric covers can be removed, although a bit of a PITA! A razor knife & some patience will do it. Skin 'em like a moose!
The seats should already have the bracket under the covers for the switches. GM was pretty good at stuff like that.

Why no GoPro vids from the quads? Mentioning the camera & then no vids? Boo! Lol!

FYI for the switches there is a bracket that bolts in the seat base frame with different sized openings for the different switch sets - lumber only, 6-way and lumbar, and power heated lumbar. That bracket will be needed but will work with your existing leather and cushion as the switch is larger.

I've been considering trying to remove the fabric on my seats it's just SO scary considering these are some of the cleanest GMT400 seats I've seen in a truck over 100k miles. I just don't have it in me to possibly destroy them. Maybe I should find a clean passenger seat to try it on?

And I haven't taken anything worthwhile with the go-pro. Been too busy enjoying the quads and camping to put enough forethought into riding with it. Usually it's a "oh lets ride" kinda deal and remember later.

I have another new "toy" to play with, not related to the truck camper quad or house at all.... and I doubt anyone would guess what it is anyway xP

Time for my typical mass update!

Got tired of the feedback the Cobra 75 CB made, so I stole the reliable realistic from the 88 as a temporary solution.

Hazard switch was funky when I bought the truck,, finally broke while driving..... Temp fix and then dis-assembly to replace parts.

Life of a dually is never done!

Dad's 75 silverado spun a bearing and blew the motor while hunting, so I brought the 09 GMC down for him and towed the 75 home.
