Just replaced my rear tan leather covers last week. Not a hard job at all, only had to get the spouse to help a few times.
#1 Best trick I can tell you on seat covers is to go to your local dry cleaner company.... and get some of that really thin plastic they put clothes in. Put that over foam and the cover will just slide right over the foam.
#2 Trick.... those little plastic clips.... run some para cord thru it.... use the cord to pull clip in place... cord will slide right out when you're finished.
#3 Trick.... if having a lot of trouble stretching the leather. Lay seat inside truck... go park truck in full sun with windows up.... at like 100 degrees plus, the leather is easier to work with when you get back to work bench.
