Oh no, you have to take seats out?! I've never done that before ! its easy, the front seat is 4 bolts and an electrical connector underneath. for the rear, fold down the seats. 2 bolts connect the seat back to the hinge. dont remove the hinges from the chassis or else it will be hard to line them up again. for the rear seat bottom, in the center front of each seat is hook. firmly pull up and it will come out. -------------------- |

im installing the covers onto the leather cushions. the back of the seat turned out great. having a little trouble getting the bottom to fit right. about how much will it shrink when i use the hair dryer on it? is it very minor or is it something everyone has had to do?

^^ Are you trying to install these on top of your old seat covers? Like, you didn't take anything off of your seats before yous tarted putting these on?

Whew. There for a second, I was thinking you left the leather covers on your seats. Well, in that case, I am wondering how much the blow dryer will shrink the covers as well. Can't wait to see the pics.

I got a set of the front covers for a 94 Celica GT Coupe with tan leather seats. They are the right shape, but the seats/brackets are totally different than the ones shown in this thread. Therefore, the installation is very different, much more difficult because there is no 'cord' system among other things like the seat disassembly is more complex. I got the front passenger seat disassembled and the cover test fitted, but threw in the towel on these after dealing with the lack of 'cord' system and other things. I am now looking for a set of used seats instead or just going to finally upgrade to racing seats for this car. Just wanted to warn those interested in trying this on a 94 Celica GT Coupe with tan leather seats and any other models with the same seats.

I am looking for a drivers seat, I have custom covers, but they aren't looking so great right now. If you have a drivers seat or assist me with a drivers seat then I will purchase a cover kit from you all together. I will probably get the covers eventually when I get the drivers seat. I can't find a seat for a long time now.

I guess, he is not checking this board or his messages! Not nearly as much as he used to, no. You may have better luck contacting him on Facebook. His name is Vincent Ma, if you want to try to get in contact with him on the 6gc group. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

If you can't get a hold of him I found a site that does 6gc/7gc seats you pick the material and the color from the selection. It is more pricey but you have a better selection. http://www.gtcovers.com/seat-covers/toyota...eat-covers.html
