1A Upholstery

Just recently Finished installing Frt. and rear seat covers and complete door panels from 1A Auto in my 85 T/A and was very happy with the fit and service i got. Tony went out of his way to make sure the color combination and calling me numerous times to keep me updated on the situation. He'll send you samples if that will help you. I have uploaded 3 other pictures in aftermarket product review. Thanks again to Tony.

Re: 1A Upholstery

looks looks great, thats the original interior on my '86 as well. My seats were completely trashed so i swapped in some Lear Sieglers from an '85. Nice to see what that color combo was supposed to look like!
Nice Job!

Re: 1A Upholstery

Yes,I installed myself. The hardest part is getting the headrest off. You'll have to make a 1/16 spring steel tool,like a slim jim to slide down and release, otherwise just a matter of stretching and unzipping some sections and using hogrings(which come with).You'll also need a torx bit, i don't remember what size, for the reclining mechanism. When i received mine i laid them out for a week and let some of the wrinkles relax.
