Re: Seat Refurbishing

[Michael Goodman <mgoodman@sfu.ca>]

I got mine done by a local shop for 340bux CDN... Both seats wear totally
redone with supersport vinyl, the same stuff they make snowmobile seats
with... I decided to make the whole seat black; very similar to original
outer vinyl material...anyways, I looks super great, and nice and soft on
the behind. I looked at doing them myself, but I'm not really a super
craftmen, but have just done the headrest which were pretty easy to do...
