I am still waiting on him to make a set of black/red ones for the 04-05 seats. Let us know how hard/easy they are to install once you put them in Jason.

To be honest it looks pretty simple to put these on yourself, but I don't want to take the chance of messing them up, So I'm going to take it somewhere and have them do it for me.

And yeah ill post pics once they are on!!!

Get seat heaters to install while the back is off.

The seat covers unclips on the lower portion of the seat frame, then rolls off.
The seat bottom may stick a little to the cushion.

To install turn the new covers inside out and roll on !
After you install the heaters... that is if you live in a colder climate !

Luck

I've never seen a need for seat warmers in Missouri. If it's cold, turn the heat on or wear more layers

that is still extremely cheap compared to the dealership. $250 would almost cover just one cover. hell, that's still cheaper than most upholstery shop would even do a single bucket seat for.

yeah. but it sucks for us who do this kind of work for a living. people are willing to drop 4-5k on a paint job, couple thousand in suspension, couple thousand in motor work, but want the interior for next to nothing. this guy selling these covers isn't making very much on them, plus it hurts the rest of us who are trying to make a living doing upholstery.

Okay guys, I got the passenger seat done tonight... It might be that I had no idea what I doing but it was a ***** and a half for me to do. The hardest part was getting my seat cover off. It was fairly easy to figure out how to do, but it takes some man power to get it on lol.

Anywho.... Tear down of the pass seat

Thanks my man. Yeah its a real tight fit... Had to pull on the material to strecth it out and loose it up a lil bit. And yeah its so worth it.

And what your seeing is a crease on the shoulder, just from being folded up in the box it was shipped it. The crease is gone now tho lol.
