you got it!! Good deal. So, how are your fingertips feeling, or is there any feeling at all? LOL.

You should probably get some burlap to go between the frame and the foam also, or at least an old sheet or something to keep the foam from getting torn up.

Just completed all but my driver seat, (until im done with body). It is a tedious process but worth it in the end with the money saved. Good luck. I suggest Bud Light as another tool to join the dremmel.

Bud Light? Yuck.... Try some real beer, maybe MGD or a good Blonde Boch, or a Sam Adams...

Fingers feel fine, now, but I did need to take breaks. Good thing there is no hurry to get this done.

I did buy some burlap--that was easy enough. I couldn't find a good source for the jute that surrounds the seat frame, however, and came up with a creative solution that others might benefit from knowing about.

I just bought a piece of the insulation designed to go under the package tray and cut it, lengthwise, into four strips. Makes enough to replace the rotting jute found on the two front seats.

Thanks again for your help.
