Default Seat Covers, How difficult?

I was wondering how hard the covers will be to install on my 68 coupe. The front two buckets and the rear bench. I got it quoted at 100 bucks a seat, so 400 total. Im not payin this much so i wanted to know how hard it would be w/ the proper tools, (pliers and hog rings) to do. thanks.

i personally wouldnt do seats myself, cause its easy to mess up and expensive when you do.

Son and I did his 67 coupe without much problem. Just have an assistant help with stretching the material while you put the hognose rings in. Goes much faster and easier. Really kinda fun once you get the hang of using the hognose rings. Do a search in this forum for pics or go to Mustang Monthly for a how to in the tech section. Also, clean up your seat hardware while you are at it and grease the tracks with lithum grease. Mucho gratification from doing this yourself!!! Take some pics of your progress and post em here...Have fun...
