The piece of naugahyde the arrow is pointing to. Is it factory? It looks to be part of a spare tire cover that I don't have.

HO455...Yes, it is factory. I have one just like it! I have my three bench seats being worked on by an auto upholsterer right now...and he is making new side panels as well (without the scroll work) including this filler piece that covers the awkward transition between the side panel and spare tire cover. I'll post pictures when they are done.

HO455...when my side panels got done, the upholsterer enhanced this piece by gluing it onto a thin piece of fiberboard instead of just letting the vinyl hang loose. It fits really well and doesn't interfere with the spare tire. I do need to wipe off some light chalk marks the upholsterer overlooked, though!

Thanks again. Timely information as now the weather is finally getting dry I can get on the with replacing my back panels. Now the truck is immobile it is a good time to "Getter done"
I wish your upholstery guy was closer. It seems that upholstery shops are one of the riskiest vendors out there.
