    I have a JDM spec leather rear seat set and I would like to exchange that to a black fabric interior WITH FOLD DOWN SEATS.

    because my Jay Dee Emm tight seats don't fold it's so inconvenient...Check classifieds tomorrow.

    i picked up my 1998 es front seats yesterday got half of one raped haha. the bottom half is hard cause i can get any of the knobs off so i can get the cloth off, any help on how to get them to pop out would be cool. but here is the top half came out pretty good was a bitch to stretch it though

    Hey man i just wanna say this to you.......... You probably wont get it to stretch more then that... because the foam material has probably settled in to you or whoever else drove the car and it doesnt bounce back to its original forum. So instead of wasting time stretching how about some filling in with some cotton or some shit.. IDK im not an interior guru i just know my car seats are pretty worn. I guess the owner before me was a huge fat ass........ BTW.. Where and how much u getting this stuff?

    Lol its hard to understand what really goes into doing this unless you are here helping, ill take pictures of the next one that i do. They are not easy at all to do, there are little bars that you have to weave through the seats and some hog rings to make the leather suck into the seat. once you do that it clips over support bars in the back to stretch it more, so in all actuality you really cant stretch them more, the wrinkles that you see are in there from the get go, they are stretched as far as they can be. They look better in person just ask 00galantguy he has been helping me.

    I got the kit from ebay, its a katskinz leather kit i paid 112 bux shipped for them.

    edit: here is the back of the seat as you can see i really cant stretch them more then what they are already, the bars that i have to weave go where the seams in the leather is lol i take a video of me doing it and you will see that it is a bitch to do.

    o yea and if u want to make the foam bounce back to its original shape to help it be less wrinkly use a garment steamer on the bare foam it will balloon back

    Lol ive been trying to tell them that the wrinkles where supposed to be there. I did use the hog rings with the little rods to pull them into the seat its such a pain in the ass to do, seriously thats damn good work for doing it in my basement with not experience in wrapping seats prior to trying this out.
