Are you looking to have oem type coverings put on, or have custom upholstery? Removing your cloth and replacing it with factory leather is pretty easy.

Donny Kasper has started his own upholstery biz apart from his dad. Can't find the biz card tho.

Factory cloth removed Roush Leather installed.

I have done the factory cloth to factory leather switch which was pretty easy. This is factory cloth to Roush leather. The Roush J hooks are different and there are a lot more hog rings. Hog rings are not a big deal but the J hooks are!

I got the back seats done, head rests done , lower fronts done, installed the new Roush foam, but the j hooks on the front seat backs are a bitch!

Almost there!

J hooks? The wide plastic things that hook onto the seats frame work?

Turn the heat up in the house and throw the covers over the vent for a day or two. Heating the leather up will soften it up and make it easier to stretch.

J-Strips--not J-hooks. The parts that hook onto the seat frame are easy, the t-hooks are easy, hog rings are easy. But the j strips need to be "rolled over and snapped".

Since I had done this before with the factory leather, I knew the leather needed to be more pliable so I did put in front of an electric heater for 24 hours, still wont cooperate. Pissing me off!
