If your OEM leather is in good shape then that's the best way.

that is the proper way to do it.. thats also why i said you need hog ring pliers.. so u can re attach the seat cover properly... its not bad at all to do.. iv done many many of them.. it takes about a hour or so to remove the seat covers and install the heat element and put it back together.. maybe about 30 min more to wire it up.. let me know when u do it and i can come down and get it done for you. u will be suprised how easy it is..

Brother, that would be awesome, I'll supply the Corona and Pizza, we'll get it done in no time, we're only doing 2 seats, the only other time I did this was on an eclipse, and it took me all day, it was a b1tch!

eastwest2300 · 01-24-2013, 08:49 PM

I've actually releathered 2 seats, and the backseat, to include the flip down seats on the eclipse, and im telling ya, its an ALL DAY job, especially if its your first time doing it... its a serious B!tch.

I'll just have to order a pair and put on like Steve said, but if I find myself time, I'll put them under
