So i began the process of re-doing my seats this weekend. Stripped down the passengers seat since the side foam is in good shape i wanted to start there.
figured out where the clips are, and the screws holding the head piece in place. Pulled the back pad and then the side/back covers since those are shot and getting done as well. My first question in putting this back in place- WOW is the back and side part tight!!! is there a trick to stretching it out to get it in place?? #2. how did you assemble the center back and head rest pad? on the back there is a piece of foam and 2 stiff strips that the original one was sewn to. Did you just glue this? i am thinking about stapling it along with some type of upholstery glue. I am also putting the headed pad in so- i might take this to a shop for finishing , but would like to do it myself, i just dont want to wreck it. . |
