    This guy makes things look so easy, well done. I am not sure about the colour scheme. It took 3 weeks to replace my seat cover on 560sl 🙄

    Hello autosick, this is a great job. I have read a detailed description from your restoring leather seat job on a 560 SL which was done & described step by step and accompanied with a lot of pictures but unfortunately i can't find it back.... I would appreciate if you could with us on which webforum you posted it. Many thanks for your support

    I'm surprised he didn't use glue on the sides just as he found when he removed. The glue helps keep the leather flat there perhaps. One thing I don't like about 1990 on SLs is how crappy the seats look after the years go by. These older Benz car seats age slightly better.

    Hello! In the beginning you said "no need for Hog Ring here..." but I notice at the end you indeed did use hog ring pliers. Did you change your mind or were you just saying the hog rings were not needed here but you do use them over there?

    Great video. Where did you purchase the leather seat kit? All I can find are ones with the perforations.

    Awesome tutorial, where can I get just the driver's side seat only, not the back rest, and will it be the same color as the original, or do I have to change the backrest and headrest also? Can you recommend a website to order the part. Also, where can you buy a wooden hammer? Hope these questions aren't too basic. Thanks for the help

    I am getting ready to order new front rear seats head rests and armrests for my 1987 300d w124. My seats are in good condition but its the palomino color that turns pinkish. So going to replace the upholstery. Have you ever done w124 seats.

    Dude, awesome job. Thank you for posting. I am redoing my w123 seats with leather this really helped me I am going to get some hog ties. Did you only use them around the back of the bottom? Or did you use them where ever the leather was “tucked” into frame?

    You are working on wrong way to put this head in. I never cut before put the plastic staff. You have to remove the plastic after install the leather then you go to find the rolls.
    the way you do easy do mistake.
