**jigga89SEi** · 05-20-2003, 03:19 AM

it's reappolstered...........The back seats are done.........I'll get pics of the whole interior next weekend........I still gotta finish the doors and center console........and dash but that is going to stay factory for quite some time...............

It turned out pretty good. Set them out in the sun for a while and it should shrink a little and tighten up. Next time you do it, glue each piece of the pattern to 1/4 inch foam and then sew them together. It will make them lay out without the wrinkles and make it fit tighter on the seat.

**adams86lxi** · 05-20-2003, 03:26 PM

looks pretty good!

**ghost_ny** · 05-20-2003, 03:38 PM

I helped all the way through the process of doing my seats. There were three of us working on them so I just did what I could to help. The only thing I didn't work on was the actual sewing. I needed to leave that to the professionals.

This explained a lot, man. Thanks. At first, I was gonna ask if you used the Tide to wash the black off and the seat itself eventually turned white. But yeah, thanks for the explanation and NICE JOB!!

**jigga89SEi** · 05-21-2003, 01:09 PM

Here's a couple of them in the car......there will be more when I finish the interior....enjoy.....
