The reason for working on this seat is because the owner want to change from clothes to leather because cloth is fast to be dirty and smell when water touch.

Car seat is not the only thing I work on but on all car interior.

Steps follow to make the above finished work come to real

Step 1
The first step to take is to loose the seat from the car to where you will conduct your work, ie shop.
After that I now go to market to purchase a leather the will best match with the interior of the car. Here is the leather using for the work.

Step 2
Ditch out the side cover and then unclip the seat from the main flame for easy upholstery and measurement.
