These have been patterned and staring up production. I'll have pictures later today.
You will be able to include the fiberglass if you want, I'm working on pricing for that now.

Possible it could ship with seat kits, but may be a week or so behind them.


I'm in for a set in black. I have the fiberglass backing, but do you have some thoughts as to how to staple the vinyl to the fiberglass after gluing? I'm afraid gluing alone won't last long in the SoCal sun.

You can use the short staples and glue no problem.


I tried the staples, but the fiberglass was too hard for the staples to penetrate. Any suggestions?

I haven't done one of Mark's fiberglass panels yet but I've worked with similar using an elec stapler as Mark mentioned. If you do not have solid backing when you shoot the staple it won't penetrate properly. Kinda like bucking a rivet.

I recommend the HF pneumatic stapler. Mine works great, and for $23 you will never touch a manual staple gun again.

Thanks for all the good suggestions to use an electric or pneumatic stapler. I'll give it a try when I receive the vinyl backpad upholstery from Mikey.
