Any upholstery guys here??? got a question for ya... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was wondering how many square yards of material it would take to do the interior of a truck....rough guess-timation maybe?

- seat
- entire roof (not just where the stock headliner was - but from windshield to back glass and door to door)
- interior "A" and "B" pillars
- the back wall (section from the rear window to the floor and wrapping around to both side doors)
- the door panels (window to door bottom - roddoor style panels)
- the inner kickpanels
- top of dash
- face of dash
- dash pad

I am unsure if I will cover all the above items, but wanted to figure for enough material if I decide to. I have the chance to buy some leather hides and am unsure of how much will be needed for this....any reply is much appreciatted

Thanks!

Shane,
You will need about 8 yards to do everything you mentioned!

Like this? I don't know how much it took but it only cost $600 installed. And it does go over and around the rear window and entire headliner.
