Re: seat cover help
Wow that looks pretty nice but my seat is also missing a bunch of foam where it is ripped. Did you add any extra foam? How much was the cover?

Re: seat cover help
That is a nice job for a first effort. My friend Bobby Russel in Waco who did the seat on my truck years ago said that having the vinyl material nice and warm and soft when you go to pull it over the seat cushion helps immensely as he was moving faster than I could keep up with doing my seat.

Re: seat cover help
Oh I see it now. I was looking at the "custom tailored vinyl".
I wonder what the difference is. Just the patterns? |
