I need to reupholster my back pad. Bought a new core. Will transfer the foam over to my new core. I'm looking at kits and the best deal out there right now is AAAUpholster.com's kit on sale for $129 including shipping and in stock here.
914 Rubber's kit is $217 + shipping here. Auto Atlanta's kit is $169 + shipping and require 3 weeks (made to order) here. So my question for the group is ... does anybody have any experiences using AAA Upholster kits? If so, what is your experience fit and quality of the materials? TIA |

We're looking to get a kit from AAA as well. Recommended by a friend mechanic. Gonna start the interior mods on the 914 once we installed the shocks from 4Wheelonline onto the Jeep and clear the garage.

QUOTE(Rogerz33 @ Sep 6 2023, 11:59 PM)  We're looking to get a kit from AAA as well. Recommended by a friend mechanic. Gonna start the interior mods on the 914 once we installed the shocks from 4Wheelonline onto the Jeep and clear the garage. In case you've never done the back pad before ... I found this 2016 thread on how to properly reupholster the back pad extremely informative - a step by step how to do it right. I was npt expecting it to be a 17 hour project, but I suppose it takes a lot longer for a non-professional upholsterer (especially going slow and doing it right). http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=278420 I got a spare (trashed) back pad to pull the foam from so that I can work on the reupholster project while keeping my current back pad in the car (as it might take me a few month of chipping away at it here and there before I can finish). Good luck with your project! |
