take the cover off the seat.
pull all the stitching out, mark out what peice goes where on the back. use it as a patern, get new material, cutt o same shape. sew together, reattach to cushions and reinstall

Lol, that would be hard for my LTD seats, so many different styles and sizes of leather going everywhere.

This is interesting... I'm really wanting to get my seats re-trimmed... I got an awesome price for $1000 for all seats which includes any new padding needed, and done in black velour with navy stitching... but still... a grand is a lot of money if I could find out how to do it myself well. Is there anyone out there who has done it and has pics? There's got to be a million upholsterers and auto trimmers here at Fordmods

Yer mate, im no upholsterer, but im giving it a shot once my cam install is finished. I got some blue suede from when spot light closed down over here, but i think i will try with some white fake fur first (alot cheaper ie. dispensible)

some materials are way easier to work with, the fur should be easier then the suede.
