Re: dyeing seats Reply #5 – November 30, 2004, 04:34:05 PM how would you remove the cover? Tearing out a few of the stitches?would be easier to redye mine that way if I did (likely won't since it won't be as vibrant as when new - just look in the crack at the front of the seats. Most of the colors really shined when new. Also have a busted right side of my driver's seat. Either needs to be attached again (whatever "fell apart") or needs to be welded back together. The back support is weak on the right side :shakehead Quote Selected

Re: dyeing seats Reply #8 – November 30, 2004, 10:24:58 PM the seat portion looks easy to get off but the backrest is what looks difficult. I figure it can't be all that difficult though, as I doubt ford would make something complicated that'd take a lot of time (time is money) Quote Selected
