Default My New Seats

Got my new seats in today. I'm glad the color matches so well. I was a bit concerned about that. The upholsterer told me they were quite difficult to do. I'm not surprised. They looked like they would be when I took them out.
He said the wrinkles would come out after a while and to park it in the sun for a bit. He got the leather skins from California and said they were to original specs. I could have gotten less expensive ones but figured it would be worth to get the best I could. As far as I'm concerned it was.

Al,

the covers look nice quality but I'm quite surprised by the amount of wrinkles that the trimmer has left. Hopefully I'm wrong, but I'd be concerned that a "bit of sun" won't take all those wrinkles out. I've seen new covers fitted before and they look right straight away. Fingers crossed....

Paul
