Removing Seat Covers Reply #4 – April 14, 2008, 11:30:17 AM Its not too bad. You have to un-zip the fabric on the bottom of the seat back, and then get the head rest out (Hardest part) Once you get that done, its pretty easy to pull the entire cover/foam off with two people. i did it in my living room the other week :) I had a badly cracked seat frame, so it was a necessity. The bottom part, I have never done. If you need to take the cover off of the foam, that is a little more complicated with all the hog rings that attach the foam to the cover itself. Quote Selected

Removing Seat Covers Reply #6 – April 15, 2008, 10:17:34 AM Got the head reest off before i went to sleep. took about a min. for the driver seat and about 3 for the pass. I just wiggled it side to side and they popped out. I'm going to pull tops off tonight. I think ill see how the dye works on the head rest first. then try the covers. Quote Selected
