so this is not the actual set you got right?

You know I'm not talking about the leather seats right? This is the OEM E-brake Boot.


$500 is as cheap as its going to get. I cant wait to see what it looks like installed. I was leary about it, but it seems to be something awesome.

I offered her $480 shipped. I also won the auction for $465.

You can bargain... just be nice and talk her down to $460.

Just picked a set up as well in tan and they are perforated. They do look very nice and appear to be high quality. Has anyone had them on for a while -do they hold up nicely?

very easy, a local supplier had pliers for $17. everything was straight forward , you have to re-use the wired from the old leather. i did use the heat gun but just a little bit

The purpose of heatgun is to straighten up the leather right?

I don't have one but I have Con-Air
