Thumbs up DIY Re-upholstery Front Sport Seats kit 85-89

Well Fellas, another contribution to our great community 2013:

Kit:

Full Assembled Leather Quality Grade Perforated Inserts with Vinyl Piping from a local company ( PM me if you want the vendor's info )



Our Host offers kits from World Upholstery, should be the same but I can not verify.

Tools (see above, after removing it from the car)

Most important are:
Rubberized gloves
Harden Tipped Wire Cutter ( not to cut but to pry & twist those darn hog rings )
Hog Ring Plyers
Clothes Steamer
Outward Cling Stapler for the upper insert pad
Plastic shopping bag ( it really does work )

Supplies:
Adhesive Spray
Polished Steel Hog Rings to resist Rust
Stainless Steel Staples
Mineral spirits for clean up

Option: Seat Heater Pads, I used '84 center console face place to install the switches.

Time needed:
3-4 hours per seat.
