Thumbs up Leather seats installed!

I went from this:

To this:

I had to add wires for the power seats as there were no wires under the carpet for them. Ran them from the battery.

The drivers seat has bolster wear and the bottom of the seat is split. But better than before.

You could probably get the driver seat repaired for a relatively low cost at a leather repair shop

Dude I got to get one of those kits from you.

Might even put you ahead of Ice's kits.

Sorry Ice.

Wish you had leather, realize it would be way more exspensive.
