Default Redoing the interior, question..

Just got the leather seat kit, which is so nice it put a smile on my face. Anywho, i'm very anxious to put it on the car and i was wondering if it's necessary to take the seats out????? Is it possible to just do it while the seats are in the car?

Um...I had that done to my car and I believe it is almost necessary to take out the seats. If its the leather seat replacements then I would have to say yes.

yes, the front and rear seats have to come out. also, the front seats all the plastic trim needs to come off as well. good luck, i just had my seat done last month and it really brings the interior back to life.
