Leather Seat Covers

View media item 32414So I got a drivers side set of leather covers from the Seat Shop in Texas. I’ve never installed a set but I’m leaning toward trying it. They came with a set of hog rings and they have videos on YouTube. Anybody installed a set of leather specifically and if so anything in particular that is a problem? I would also be changing out the seat bottom as my existing frame is broken.

I'll get back to you on this in the A.M.

I build custom interiors for a living. This is something you can definitely handle if you pull the seat bottom and turn it inside out and roll the sides over aft the insert is installed.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll have to claim ignorance though. Turn the cover inside out and roll it over the foam seat bottom and then secure with the hog rings?

Apologies for the delayed response.
Had no internet.
The guy's clearing some trees for a new house's driveway next door took out our satellite dishes.
Being on a mountain, the dishes were mounted on top of a 20' steel pole in order to pick-up reception.
Fixing that was a little beyond my capabilities with the tools I have here! Lol!
Crane truck. Cement mixer. Etc.

But I haven't forgotten.
I'll work on posting a step-by-step for you, later tonight.
Have burgers & ribs on the Barby right now, so you're j-u-s-t gonna have to wait a bit longer!
