Work with it a little with a hair dryer andf it will form out on the spots like the front edge of the rear seat area. Looks good

not too shabby..
just give it a week or so, and the leather will settle, and it wouldn’t look so wrinkle..

How much, if any, of the work did you do yourself? Just wondering...

I did the whole install by myself. It took about 6-8 hours of total work . The tools I needed were A couple metric sockets to take out the front and back seats, wire cutters to cut the old clips, two special tools made just to close the metal clips for the new leather, 3m adhesive spray in some areas. I also used needlenose pliers, a razor blade, and a drill that made it easier but not totally necessary.

It really wasnt that hard, I wasnt sure how to do it but once you start taking the seats apart it becomes self explanatory. If you have any specific questions feel free to ask.

I have re-leathered several cars and you are right - it is not that difficult at all. Basically you are right in saying that if u take the leather off - u will know exactly how to put it back on.

So did the leather come with clips or did you have to save your old ones?? Looks sweet.

Peace guys
