Default Eckler's Seat Cover Install Video?

Anyone use it. Was it helpful?
Anyone want to sell their copy (cheap) or loan it to a fellow member?

I found a couple of web sites that show the install but Im hoping the video may explain it better.

Thanks,
Rick

I was also thinking about buying the video. I want to do the job myself. It dosen't look that difficult. Can't locate one on ebay. I thought I would buy it, then sell it to the next person.

Default seats

Hello,
I am also interested in redoing my seats. I have looked at all the supplies I need, and will also do the seat foam, metal runners, new seat backs and new trim ( bumpers, brackets, screws) I figure if I am going to do all this, then I will definetly go with the leather covers. I know that after all this work, I will be sitting on the vinyl thinking that for $150 more it could be long lasting leather.
