Re: '72 GMC long/fleet in Ottawa area

So here's the finished seat. Got the covers from vendor Truckseats, awesome! I used 1/8 steel rod for the inserts for the hog rings which worked out good, nice straight even pull all around the cover instead of waves through each hog ring pull. Only negative is that the houndstooth inserts on passenger side (bench and back) don't line up perfectly but the driver side is perfect and everything is stretched, centered and aligned evenly so not sure if it was a defect or what. Thought about pulling all the hog rings and trying again ... for about 3 seconds and said nah, will be just fine and I'm pretty happy with it over all. Good thing I took that 1" topper foam off because it sits really high ... I've read a lot of comments here on the same thing.
