I bought these just now Sedona seat covers

How difficult are these to install?


I so dislike my all black interior on my 08.

Never replaced seat covers. I would take them to an auto upholstery shop and let them do them up right. Can't cost that much to install since you have the covers already. What color is your Alpha?

Yeah I had my interior recovered with Ebony covers. The seats had to TOTALLY come out of the Rig!!

I would suggest a PRO!!

BTW, The Sedona is SHARP!!! Didn't know if I liked it at first, but now I LOVE IT!! Good Call!!!

Go with a pro and all your worries are gone.

Yes, the seats have to come out entirely. I was thinking an upholstery shop to have it done. I replaced seat covers on a 2004 VW Beetle before for a friend - those were a b*tch to do - damn hog ring fasteners - ugh. Maybe now is the time to beef up the cushioning in my driver's side seat on the bottom. The side has flattened out from me sliding out of the truck every time I need to get out.

Anyone in here need some factory seat covers? I'll be willing to part with my old ones from my 08 H2

I installed the Off-Road black covers from Hummer...they were easy to install....just need some ARM power to snug-fit the covers.......w/straps....

Sorry, I dident know they were talking about the (Entire) Seat cover........

In that case, its time to take it to a Pro-trim shop.....we do total covers at work,for our Semi-Tractorsbut (what a bitch, to put on)........

Just got the seat covers today - These are going to be a piece of cake. Time to firm up the driver seat bottom and sides while I am at it (Not mine on my body) Since all of you are picture wh*res... I'll put up some pics when I am done.
