Don't the console mounts go under the seat mounts?


*Edit*

I guess it doesn't matter. Not your daily driver. :D
Yeah, I said I’d install the leather, as in on the seats, not the seats in the truck. The fronts will be left out until the sub and console are in. The rears can go in anytime after the carpet is in. I doubt I’m going to get the seats done before next weekend. Then the carpet will take a weekend. But it’s also supposed to possibly snow next week and I’m not going to do anything outside if that happens. I have to work on a construction site so I’ll just try to get through the work week outside. We will see.

Why do you have the seats off the frame? I don't remember going that far.

Seems the easiest way to do it. Pull the foam off with the covers still on, pull the old covers off and put new covers on. Then slide the foam/ covers over the frame. That way you can compress the foam easier and fit it to the foam. At least for the rears. Are you talking about rear seats in a pickup or fronts? I’ve done fronts in The Beast and with those I left the foam on the frame but with these rears it’s different.

I didn't take the foam off so I was curious.

Stupid FedEx, they state there’s a weather delay between Cali and Oregon yet there’s no storms happening today through the mountain passes. No wonder Amazon dropped them due to low on time percentages. So no Katzkins today.

Pulled the rest of the seats, console and trim out this morning. Found more fries, no change dammit. Anyone interested in a Cerwin-Vega under seat sub? I just listed it on EBay. You can see why I want new carpet. I mean besides the fact it’s dirty.
