Thumbs up

They look great, did you also change the rubber cushions as well? They also look comfortable and I wouldn't mine some black leather buckets like those with the center console.

85K5, those do look great! My LMC catalogue is on it's way! Was that price for seat covers, or the entire pair of seats?

Secondly, I have a '75 Blazer that's starting a frame off. Can I upgrade the interior to up to '87 interior without too much re-work? Up to '91???

Did Blazer seats come either low back or high back? 85 K5, yours appear to be high backs..

LMC reupholstery seat kits are just the covers, a package of hog rings and hog ring pliers. Page 66. I ran out of hog rings, found them at Ac* Hardware. Original upholstery is removed from the seats, the wire supports are removed and installed into the new covers. Hog rings hold them in place, as well as at the rear bottom of the seat.

The price was for the pair. I held off a long time before getting them, I was sure the price was each! Finally called and asked.

Not sure what year Blazers came out with high back seats, but I think after they did that was all that was available.

Sorry can't help with the upgrade. Don't have an older one to compare. You'll find everything in LMC for the 75, however. I like original, except for the guages. Oh and a 88-91 steering wheel.
