Default "Project snazzy saddle" finally finished. pics on page 2

got home from work today and in the matter of 1 hour, I had the rear and passenger side seats out, and the passenger seat the majority of the way broken down. I have the seatback removed, all the trim off and the knee bolster has already been stripped and I have the new vinyl on it, just need to find staples to staple it down.

cant really go much farther without the hog rings, but I will get pics up in the morning... not really much to see, but I got pics of the small progress I have made.

didnt get as much as I wanted done, my buddy called me and asked if I wanted to see "Wanted" and that was a BADASS movie

took me 10 minutes to remove the seats from the car, then 50 minutes to strip the front seat apart...

I didnt touch the driver seat, as I need the car this weekend

Pay close attention to how the hog rings are positioned. Be sure to put them back in the same spots or it wont look right....I am going to take apart my passenger seat and re do it because it looks like poo[:@].

Nooooiiiiiice!!!

Maybe now would be a good time to give the carpet a good shampoo job... it'll make it look and smell "purdy".
