Ended up costing me 95 bucks but like I said, I had trouble finding a black power drivers seat cover from junkyards, and buying one for the dealership was according to the local one, over 200 dollars.

Hey, $100 for them to rebuild the seat is awesome. I'm going to call them up soon to redo mine. i can feel the frame through the cushion when i'm driving.

Oh yeah, that's can't be comfortable. Hopefully it doesn't cost much for the new cushion. Like I said mine was just to repair the cover. I had to get the frame re welded because the lumbar support bars (more like little wires) broke off and my seat had no back support. It sucks for long drives

i hear ya. mine is all manual. bottom cushion is basically gone. family owner for the last 90,0000 miles. My dad was 290lbs and i'm 240. so, its been abused haha.

Replace the bottom cushion and skin for under 150 i'd be fine. So, thanks for the heads up.

hows the rest going?

Progress has been slower than I would have preferred with work and everything else going on. But I have a few more photos to add

Rear seats are in, as you can somewhat see, I havent finished routing the cables quite yet. That's coming up. Also all the rear plastics are in place.


Front Seats, center console and shifter know are in place. I still have to finish the passenger side door of some sound deadening


And to show you how that repair looks from Shelby Trim. Like I said, now that it is new fabric, it makes the rest of the seat look like crap cause it hasnt been cleaned yet. Looks like a professional steam cleaning will be in order


Still havent gotten around to getting the BIG 3 installed, or ordered a battery or alternator. Money seems to be a little more rare than I remember lately

Yes it is but in all honesty, you would get better results on the floor with luxury liner pro because its a combo of regular luxury liner and overkill which will keep all road noise out from the floors. i used 4 sheets and have a very small amount left over.

I deadened my whole truck for about $550. sounds like a lot but, once everything was done with, i love it.
