My new Seat covers (Lots of pics!)

Just got myself some new seat covers from over at Hawks ThirdGen and I must say what a great product! They fit like a Glove. I'm not saying they were easy to put on had allot of tugging and pulling my hands were very sore by the time I was done but then end result was well worth whatever pain I was subjected too!:lala:


Here are some before shots.....









Here are some after..........









What do Ya all think???

No, I did not like the twead......lol But 5 years ago I changed the Interior from saddle to black and the only seats I could get were from a 84 TA So I took what I could....lol I started with the back seats because they were smaller just incase I had a hell of a time putting them on. The first one the seat bottom in back took me about a hour but once I got how they went together it took me about 15-20 each. The front ones were a tad more involved. I put the first one on it I was not strait so I had to take it back off and try it again. I had to fix some if the cushions and bend the wire frame up a bit to get the shape back in them but all in all it was not to bad. Well worth the $$$. Thanks HAWKS!:lala: :hail:

Yah, That would be nice. And it would have made things allot more easy.....Trying to build them up with just pieces is not the easy way!
