I just did my second drivers seat in my 05 GMC. I did my first complete drivers seat and foam at 185,000 miles. My seat heater on the upper failed recently so I decided to replace it and my seatbelt was becoming very frayed. The lower seat still looked reasonably good but was starting to show wear at the now 395,000 miles. So I decide to go a head and do the bottom again as it it is the harder one for me to replace. I bought the new derafom seat cushin again and upper and lower seat heaters. I can tell you that the seat cover lasted far better than the factory one. I just decided since I was taking it apart I would do it again. I 100% recomend the Seat Shop and their products. You wont be disapointed.
Very informative video here. I was looking around for seat covers for my truck. Found some cheap ones on eBay, and have looked into the seat shop before. Decided to do some research and stumbled on this video. Thanks to this video I will for sure make sure and spend the extra money and buy from the seat shop. You guys know your stuff and thanks for taking the time to explain what I’ll be getting as opposed to the cheaper option.
My man is telling the absolute truth here! I purchased a seat bottom for my '05 explorer from an eBay store. (I didn't even know about the seat shop). Color is off and worst is the actual cut of the bottom is noticeably different. Wish I could return it, however, I bought it through the winter months and just installed it. Live and learn!
@@TheSeatShop I will definitely be shopping with you in the near future. My passenger side seat bottom is looking a little ragged. This time I will shop smart!
This is like these idiots who buy Lowe’s branded paint and take it to the return desk at Home Depot and despite it having a Lowe’s label swear they bought it at Home Depot.
China must have stepped up it's game because I just bought the ebay special and it doesn't have any of the poor qualities you are talking about. The grain matches my 2007 suburban exactly. The color is darn near exactly the same as the original. The stitching all lines up. It doesn't have the side seam. The foam is adhered to the leather. It's almost as if they watched your video and made the necessary changes to be a more quality product. It doesn't appear to have that protective plastic spray coating and It's definitely not a strong as the original but it's going in a vehicle where we may only put 2,000 miles a year on it. We got a new vehicle so the old suburban is for towing and hauling now. I with I could afford your seat covers but with one vinyl seat base cover costing $160 to $190, I just can't swing that. Although, I do need 1 second row seat cover and I can't find one anywhere else anymore but on your site so I may have to save up for that one seat cover.

I can say I recieved my leathers and they are better than factory. Can’t wait to install them.
