The FJ40 got a little bling bling...
Got some new covers and new foam for the bottom seats...she also got some seat warmers put in....fancy!!!

The heat selection buttons are on the seat lever covers...you can kinda see them as little black circles...

Bam there it is...

Wow! good job Roy! I have watched some shows on TV where they have re-covered seats and it looked like pain in the butt. Looks like you did an awesome job, now I just have to find some covers for mine and enlist the new upholstery expert in the club.

very nice!

Thanks guys,
The job was not difficult but I did have to have some help with the seat cushions...the new foam was a pain to get into those covers, had to enlist the help of my wife to stretch the fabric onto the holes for the hog rings to clamp...other than that it just took time waiting for the paint to dry on the metal frames since it was in the 30's in the garage this last weekend.

I would like to go on that snow run, but I am leaking brake fluid from between master cylinder and the booster...I think it's the gasket that blew...any ideas?

Replace the master cylinder and you should be good to go. THe fluid is leaking from the end of the master cylinder.

Yes, I need to replace master cylinder, NAPA has them but "no luck getting one before the run" ...
