From Cloth to Leather

Find some seats, a torx bit and about 45 minutes. That's what is in involved in the change over.

Cool breeze.

Nice, thinking about doing the same thing. Either swapping for stock leather or after market.

I ruminated and contemplated a lot about Katskinz, etc.

pick_a_part via Ebay was solid. Thats where I got them. Dude, I'm telling you, you won't want to mess with the hog rings, smoothing, cutting, gluing involved with DIY with aftermarket leather.

If money's no object, by all means I would have paid to get custom leather seats.

My 2 cents.
