They look wicked! Especially with the green!

I was wondering what you use to fix holes in vinyl? :confused: Is it possible to fix a huge hole, then dye my seats? I have vinyl/cloth....never done anything like this and would like to keep the original covers...thanks!!!

They look great!!! I went with 80's style C3 seats on my '68 and it was a good decision..

However- I went with new covers instead of fixing the old ones...

Looks good Ed. Do you think that type of patch job would work on leather? I've got a rip in the leather seat section on my daily driver.
