Ive recovered several seats by now. A couple of good tips.
1. put your new seat covers out in the hot sun for an hour or more before starting, that softens, loosens up the stiff vinyl... Better, if you have a black or dark colored car, put the vinyl covers on that hot car in the hot sun for a hour or so, as you are disassembling the old seats.
2. Use some plastic, dry cleaning plastic works best, but a plastic trash bag will work too, pull the plastic over your foam, then.. that warm pre-heated vinyl cover will slip onto your seats like warm butter.
After hog ringing on the new skins, I like to let the seats sit out in the hot sun for another hour or more, for the new vinyl to soften and take its new shape. The corners and every where that you have STRETCHED and HOG RINGED, the stitching and thread will be stressed and weakened somewhat, by letting the finished product sit in the hot sun for a while, softens and gets everything to stay in place, without ripping.

Thanks so much for the video..I thought I needed new foams but this video taught me to restore them for about 20 dollars of foam....new foam would have cost me about 500 Canadian dollars. ANd I would not have been able to put the covers on without the video. Save me a ton of time and money....and I learned a new skill!
