Default Katzkins???

I'm about to order some Katzkins to replace my factory cloth, and I plan on doing the work myself.....what should i expect with this? will i need special tools or anything like that?
Thanks for the input in advance!

Katzkins are a breeze to install just a bit of a PITA. Your fingers will ache afterwards. I would also suggest you get the upgrade premium which gives more leather content.

Here is how they describe it:Standard interiors have full leather faces on the front row, and leather inserts in the rear seats.

Premium interiors have full leather faces on the front row, and leather seating surfaces in the rear seats.

Vinyl kits are all vinyl.


As for tools you will need basic hand tools to disassemble the seat and remove them from the car. You will need two pairs of needle nose pliers to remove the hogrings from the stock covers. Which is the hardest part. After you have the stock covers removed turn the Katzkins inside out to put them on it makes it much easier.
