    I have a new/used bottom seat cover coming to replace my torn to fuck original cover. What do I need to get the job done?

    The DIY for this is here
    some pliers and some torx bits/sockets are necessary, there isn't too much to it haha, it's not too hard

    Don't forget the Beer. The job doesn't go as smooth without that tool.

    Are you getting the foam too? Or just the leather cover?

    I found that zip ties rather than reusing the sharp metal clips to fasten seat cover to foam worked really well when I did mine.
