Seat Cover installation
I've removed the seats from the car and fixed all the seat frame problems....so, frames have been primed and painted and re-bent...and in some cases welded and reinforced...I have the foam...and the covers(leather-like) and an installation kit with all the clips, etc., all I need done is install it all together...how much should that cost?

I agree.....if you have the install kit you may want to try it yourself. here's a pretty good "how to" site.

I've heard that the leatherlike installs easier than leather......but no personal experience. As far as price?.....our local upholstery shop charges $85 per seat for leather.....less for leatherlike...$70 I think. They do good work.
Hope this helps
