Anybody here recover their own seat with a cover you may have gotten somewhere else? If so, was it a pain or fairly simple.
maybe a tack hammer and off you go.
maybe a stupid question...but what are the proper staples? I can't just use my staple gun and blast them in that way?
I have recovered plenty of seats the way i suggested to you. Kids round here like zebra crap and lions etc. Works and looks good when finished. By proper staples i ment strong metal ones from menards or loes. just make sure you dont get too long of ones.
To be honest with you Ive seen a couple guys that did it on their own and they look good from afar but look like chit when you get up close. I said the hell with that and paid a guy who works at a car upholstery shop to put it on for me. He charged me $35 and it was well worth it cause he used a steam machine to stretch the material over the seat and it is flawless. No wrinkles, no unevenness , and it actually feel more comfortable than the stock seat![]()
