be glad you didn't have to deal with hog rings. I had to do a seat recall when I worked for Acura and I never want to see another hog ring as long as I live lol

Actually I used to do Aftermarket leather for new car dealers for 10yrs so I've seen my share of hog rings, like anything else once you know the tricks from doing it a million times it gets alot easier.

Auto Upholstery | Leather Seat Covers | 3rd Row Seats | Home page The color is perfect, at first seems a little lighter but then I remembered the rest of the seats have 12yrs of dirt and wear on them.

Does anyone know where I can get the seat foam? My drivers seat is pretty jacket up and needs a replacement cover but I can't really put one on until I do something with the cushion. It has some big chunks out of it.
