[gtfour43]

Who said vacation, I'm gonna put you to work

You would want to roll over and die once you saw my interior. On another note my seats are manual but leather. I know the manual ones didnt come from the factory with leather but do your kits fit seats like mine? Its a 97 btw

They will fit, they come with no holes. You have to cut the access holes yourself.
At least that's how mine were but I don't think he's changed that.

In desperate need of a front set, looks like the only way to go. Steering wheel and shifter on the list as well. I don't think any club members have a set yet so I can check them out but you aren't that far away either. Saving some coin! Nice avatar too Shane

If you love to work, then its really not working.

There's a specific seat bottom pattern to fit yours. The rest of the interior is the same.

We do have this pattern to convert your cloth to leather.

Bottom cover us completely different from cloth manual to leather power. The reason is the seat motor and how its built.

We've relocated to Bend area and I'm happy to show you covers first hand.

I picked up a front seat to build into an office chair. This way you can sit in one and get AB idea how its going to feel.

So how many hog rings are needed for the front and middle rows? I'm ashamed to admit that I've been sitting on the new leather for a couple of years. Its going to be done the next couple if weeks.

I was asked to help out with a group buy for the 100 series crowd, might as well extend it to the 80's folks.

Coupon Code "October" for 10% off your total order...

Good till the end of the month only.

Thanks,

Shane

Ah, everything goes on sale after I buy.

Beautiful kit tho.

Get twice as many as you think you need, they're cheap. I messed up dozens until I got the hang of it. Start with the rear first because they're a bit easier and a good way to learn and fix mistakes.

The job isn't too difficult just fiddly, again I equate it to wrestling 3 hobbits in the dark. Take your time and before you squeeze each ring shut make sure it's where you want it, takes three times longer to get it out. I used a heavy nips to cut them in half to remove them just make sure you get both halves.

 

[AATLAS1X]

Alright folks. I understand how living paycheck to paycheck, answering to significant other, govt shutdown and the sheer expense. So I've extended the coupon to the 18th. My girl says the the date that works best with most people pay periods.



Thanks again for all the support.

Does anyone know where I can get some replacement knob and post that goes into the switch for the seat motors? The top one in the pic with arrow and the post that it attaches to are gone (not the stationary post the top one). I can put a screw driver into the switch itself and move the seat....

I got mine from cruiserparts.net in NH. These guys have new and used and reasonable parts. I've gotten lots of parts there small and large.

 

[JimGeorgia]

Guess my seat foam didn't make it out before. Ohh well, Its fun looking at a new interior minus the drivers seat which was the only ripped one to begin with.
