how do we take our seats apart?

kenfowler · 10-09-2015, 01:10 PM

so I just got wet okole seat covers and they really don't fit well and it seems that you need to have the seat broken down in order to truly tighten and fit the pieces.

I found this thread about wetokole covers:

doesn't have much about the disassembly.

anyone have any tips?

My tip is take it to an upholstery shop

I had my seats recovered by a pro and he said that they are one of hardest seats he had ever done.

ouch. that could get pricey. I'm all for doing things on my own. Not a lot of loose funds right now. Gotta replace the radiator in my Elise

that's a huge project on it's own. aluminum radiators are expensive!

Not cheap but to be fair I did not cheap out either
They cost as much as a pair of excellent condition M seats.
They were covered in Alcantara and leather with built up bolsters
