Anyone have any tips for installing an aftermarket seat cover , I just bought a nacs cover today and am wondering if there is any special way to install it, I know I should heat it up to make it fit better but anything else?
Thanks.

staple the front of the seatcover down with like 3 staples, then stretch the cover real good and staple the rear down with how many ever it takes to keep from coming out then get a blowdryer or heatgun and heat the cover up real nice then stretch the middle down and staple those then just work your way down the sides from the top. this is how i did it and i have no wrinkles in my seatcover what so ever

Put the cover in the dryer for a few minutes. It will warm it up and make it easier to stretch. And you will need to have an electric stapler to get through the plastic of the seat. That stuff is like steel and puts up one heck of a fight.

someone tried to charge my brother $35 bucks to do it, he walked out and we did it ourselves. Not worth it.
