    The covers come with the staples and a tool to attach them to the seats. The covers are cut with the original apholstry covers
    in mind, so they fit over the existing seats as is.

    It's a little tricky, but with a little patience, the results is rewarding.

    One hint: I put the covers in my hot car in the sun to soften up the material so it would stretch a little easier. I did the covering
    in the comfort of the A/C in the house.

    Here's the link:JC Whitney You can get a fre catalog from them.

    Seems to me that the front and back seats cost me $240 for the premium material.

    I'm getting super frustrated:sour:. I've been trying to find decent seat covers and after reading this post and seeing your seats I thought I had FINALLY found the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow... unfortunatly not. It looks like JC Whitney no longer caries this product:beaten:. I guess I'm back to square one looking for front split fold bench seat covers like these. Let me know if you have ANY other ideas or sources please.
