I am taking my old crappy seats and putting in a cleaner set but am switching the faberic over so I can still have all my adjustments. ("new" set doesn't have them all) Anybody know where I can get my hands on one of those for about 5 min?

I have a pair of hog ring pliers if that's what your talking about? I don't have many hog rings however. Don't do a whole lot of upholstery.

Yeah, that should work! I didn't know what it was called, I had just seen an electric/compressor one on tv once lol... I've never done any upholstery, but I'm sure it can't be hard to put the clamps where I pulled them off of... I'll tear my other seat apart and see if they are even swapable!

It's not that hard really. It is just doing it all in the right order, just like everything else. I've done many seat cover replacements so let me know if you need help. It's basically cut the hog rings out starting at the bottom and working your way up. Yours shouldn't be too bad since the covers were already on another seat. Putting new covers on usually sucks because they have not been stretched to fit on the seat yet, especially leather covers.

Yep. I have looked to see if there is OEM replacement covers for it but the only thing I can find is random companies that will do leather ones... Prob not the most reliable fit even if they were the clothe ones lol... It would be really nice if I could find a nice eclipse grey seat with all the stuff to just swap out. I'm 6'3" and it's SOOO much more comfortable to have the adjustment under my legs since they get folded up every time I get in anyway lol... I'll keepyou guys updated if the clothe form a plane jane bottom is swappable with one with the adjustment...
And I wrote a post Awhile ago asking if the N/A 2wd pedal assembly was the same as the turbo AWD, and the answer is, NO they are different, But YES it will still work... It's just sprung differently
