Replacing Leather Seat Cover
Hey all,
Just wondering if there is a write up on replacing the bottom seat cover on the driver seat of my GX470. I took the seat out, but to remove the cushion, it looks like the nuts that hold it are welded in place. Is this the case? Or am I missing something obvious? Thanks in advance!

I am not aware of a write up, but I have replace my drivers seat cover and cushion. There are no bolts holding the cover on. The perimeter of the cover has plastic that fits over the edge of the seat base. On one side there is a plastic snap. The cover is connected to the cushion via Hog Rings. Take your time doing this and have the cover warmed by the sun, this will make it easier. Not a difficult job, just be gentle with the cover.
hope this helps

I did my old 4runner off eBay. Bought the seat pad and the leather cover for about $300.00 made a huge difference in comfort. My 470, I had done at an upholstery shop. Was more but looks like a perfect match to the upper leather.
