<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">I did mine much as you did. I do recall gluing Muslin material to certain areas and using a plastic dry cleaning bag to help get the covers onto the seat back (pulled free afterwards). What I didn't know and it
looks like you may not have either is the trick to get the pleats in the leather covers to fill out. Some of the old seats I have taken apart had padding (looked like cotten batting) stuffed in places to fill out areas for a better contour.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
