Hi guys,
I have read a number of threads here on leather seat replacement covers and how some fit great and some others don't.
A friend of mine recently had his W109 front seats replaced and I got to watch the person doing the job for a little while. He used a steamer (looks like a clothing steamer but much more powerful) to moisten the cover after it was on the seat. He explained that allowed him to stretch it in order to get the correct fit. My buddy's seats look AMAZING!
I want to get my seats done and have seen prices for leather ranging from
$800 on Ebay to $2000 at a local MB parts store for the two front seats alone (I need to do the back seat also).
Could it be that some members here are not achieving a good fit because they are not steaming the seats in order to be able to stretch the material properly?
Looking forward to your thoughts,
Jose
