      There was a good article on the late model resto site. Doesn't look too bad to do yourself.

          I had House of Hotrods in Mansfield fix the frame, fix the foam, and install the tmi covers. I think they look great- very close/identical fabric to new.

                    I haven't sat in them yet, but from handling them I haven't noticed anything like that.

                      I called around and found they were very reasonable. $385 to fix frame, fix foam, and install covers. Other places were quoting me $500+

                          So they fixed the foam, or installed all new foam?

                          Also, do you have any better pics? Any pics of the seats in the car?

                            They put new foam over old foam to bolster it up. I try to get some better pictures - the seats are in the car now but the car is still on jack stands.

                              What do you think they'd charge to fix a ripped leather seat?
