    Just a suggestion but you may want to try heating the seat cover with a hair dryer or heat gun(low heat) before installing. It should make them much easier to stretch.
    That's what the guy said at the upholstery shop said. Him and 2 other guys heating and stretching, he even said it was a ******!

    What I did and it worked very well for me was, First hook the front of the seatcover on the front of the seat stretch it good throw 3-5 staples on it then stretch the back straight back while heating with blow dryer fold it under the back of the seat while its stretched nice and tight staple it with like 4 staples, then go to the middle and heat up pretty good with hairdryer on each side then stretch tightly on one side and staple with like 4 staples then do the same for the other side, then i went to the top again and started stapling while pulling the cover tight all the way down the side till i had one side done and did the same for the other side. This seemed to work good for me.

    Very nicely done!! I have done a couple covers recently and that is exactly how I did mine...from rear to front.
    It helps to have an extra set of hands and take your time to do it right!

    It was tough to do mine too. It took me about three hours and lots of frustration. I have the quad tech seat cover and it is sweet. I bought mine from www.atvgalaxy.com for $99.95+ shipping
