    upolstery seats

    In case i spelt upolstery wrong added the seats,this most likely has been posted before, but i was feeling tidy so i grab a old rear bench seat and went to town.cut all hog rings, peeled the cover off noting were the seat was cemented.
    washed it by hand then tossed it into the w.machine on gentle,with a full cycle of gentle heat afterwards.totally pooched it here by using (i think)16g household wire! The seat was normal disgusting,(looked like a old crime scene really). Came out all right,i think im going to use it! Could always use the proper hogring but the tied wire works ok.It sure is cleaner.

    Nicely done. Definitely looks better than it was.

    Don't worry about using the wire instead of hog rings. I've used zip ties before, and you couldn't tell the difference. They held up just fine. Way easier than hog rings.

        If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?
