Make sure you reuse the wires that are hog ringed to the frame to pull down your pleats. If they are real rusty- I sometimes just reproduce them with coat hanger wire. Without these- your covers will look like crap. Loose saggy etc. Are your seat foams in good shape? If not you can add padding, which is easy to do- but hard to make look perfect without some experimentation/experience. Buying the new foams is a wise move in my opinion. Kirby
