Factory Looking Seat Cover

[bmsmalley]

My driver's seat needs to be recovered. Where can I get new cloth and do it myself without any real issues?

You can order a factory style seatcover from Lmc truck or Brothers. They will look just like oem (close) and run you $180-200.

Thanks. I will check it out. Have you replaced this before? How much of a challange is it?

I order some from Classic Ind. and sent them back because they where made from cheap fabric and did not look like the factory one like they said they would.
So I have ordered the factory fabric from SMS auto fabric, it is expensive but it was what I wanted. Then I am having a guy I know that does auto upholstery, sew them up.
Hope it will be here by the end of next week. Then I can get pics shortly there after of new seats

My advice would be to call an upholstery shop. Some are quite reasonable, and you certainly have to be careful on the quality side. It's nice to know what you are getting.

You are right about that. From all I found this is the only company that has the orginal seat fabric. I have been wait over 3 weeks to get it from them already, Its the pattern fabric that is the hardest to find. The plain you can get something real close to it.

I recommend local shop as well. I did this, they were 200bux per seat and turned out great. I thought about getting the LMC stuff and doing it myself , which wouldve turned out horribly, or getting the stuff and letting someone else do it, which usually costs more in labor cuz your taking them the materials or just letting them do it all and that is what I did.

Looks nice! Glad to know that's an option in the future.
