Seat skin install question
Got some new skins from Mid America and have heard that they go on better if you lay the new skins out in the sun to heat them up before they go on. Well I've had them for a couple weeks now and the sunny warm days have always been when I'm working or busy and my free days are cold or rainy and I really want to get these skins on. I'm about ready to just do them in the living room and take my chances so I'm wondering if anyone has any input on this... Who has installed their skins cold or room temp and how did it go? Thanks in advance.

Haven't checked the instructions for seat cover installs from Vette Essentials for a while, but you might check there and see if there are some helpful hints on how to get them to go on easier.
