stevelenti Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 How difficult is it to install the Seat Concepts on the FJ seat? I have never done one before but I do have a good pneumatic staple gun I can use. From the looks of the seat it looks pretty easy. Since I have the staple gun already I figure why spend the extra $20-$50 bucks to have an upholstery place do it. Thanks! -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 It's pretty easy with an air gun, as most people have issues trying to use a hand staple gun. Be sure to heat the seat material up with a hair dryer or something similar and stretch the material out the way you want it to fit. I used clamps when installing mine on the FZ-09 and it seemed to help quite a bit to clamp one end of the seat sides while I stapled the other end.

Premium Member michael Posted February 28, 2016 Premium Member Share Posted February 28, 2016 I think Seat Concepts has a video on either their site or YouTube that shows how they recommend installing the cover. I had a local upholstery guy do it, and he raped me for $75. But I live out in the boonies, and he is the only choice around here. I even had to have him go back over it because many of the staples were about 1/32" from the edge of the cover. They never would have held. Probably should have bought an air stapler and done it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevelenti Posted February 28, 2016 Author Share Posted February 28, 2016 Thanks for the replies. I watched the fz09 install on their website and it looks pretty straight forward. I'll give it a go. What's the worse that can happen, right? :-) -Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
