And now time to grab the side cutter plier and cut some hog rings! Please be a patient while you removing cover for avoid the rip off your seats!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/y5ejabu6.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/y4a8era3.jpg

Now we remove the rear top seats covers off now time to get under seat!
It ll be more easier then the top because it wont be tight as much as tops
You have to flip the rear seat bottom and start cutting the hog rings !
And dont forget any rings between the crack i had 6 ring ! Between each crack!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/vyhy3y9u.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/07/bepydu5a.jpg

PS:while you removing this cover from top rear dont forget all the metal clips on plastic ! One of mine still got stuck on the seat i didnt relized it untill almost rip the seat! While i am pulling the cover off!

Very nice! This is much cleaner than the last one. Good job, man! Can't wait to see how the front seats come out.

[Ep3easternshore]

Ok! Time to do the fronts!
First we remove the zip and special seat cover clip
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/hadaveve.jpg
And you will see under the seat cover at the back, 2 strap you have to remove that!
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/hy2yhabu.jpg
And under the seat take the springs out for open up !
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/ydesa2e4.jpg
I cant believe i dont have picture of bottom [first diy :( ]
So you will see after removing springs at under cover its have another cover holdind bottom seat cove (pull that out from spring)
And then i didnt seperate the seat i just pull the plastic garnish from metal clips little bit and it gave me space the remove the seat plastic clip!
1 long at left side,1 long and 1 small at right side (for driver seat)
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/ne7ary3a.jpg
And then pull out the bottom seat!
And then pull the seat cover off from buttom make it loose ! And please be patient!
http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/etu4u6yq.jpg
And then this is the most tricky part ! I broke the most of the clips :( you have to pull the clip from back and pushed from top! (Rear side) and open the top clip from top!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/vanarene.jpg
And then from back off the seat you will see the springs for remove it! Greens spring you can remove from back! But red ones is hog rings ! You have to cut them!http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/2aqa6eve.jpg
And buttom part have whole bunch hog rings dont have any spring! Red one is springs and greens is at the bottom seat cover clips need remove to take the seat offhttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/ahe9y2az.jpghttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/ubynatan.jpg
Passenger is ideantical the driver seat!
And putting back the seat covers if you start like this it ll be easyier the put the hog rings on ! Dont pull the cover all the way down ,come down step by step with ringshttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/12/08/yta7a8u8.jpg

If it isnt an OEM optino then who made them, cause there are quite a few leather interior sets I have seen floating around. Did someone in UK make these in a small run or something?

[Ep3easternshore]

Its came from used car idont have really idea i just saw it, like it and buy it , he willed the strip the seats so ,most of them dont even wanna ship, he was a great guy
