i looked at a few of the samples.....i wanted katzkin so that it was a tight leather, but most of the install pics show it as sort of loose fitting, got waves in it....i want it tight like the stock seats.....
any suggestions?

ya the 2nd pic, i think is called gathered center or something. Just choose the normal seat pattern and you'll get a tight fit.
Well only a tight fit if you install it right, by pulling tight on the cover while it velcos onto the foam padding. Then if u have wrinkles, take a heat gun and heat it up for a little and then spray water on it asap to cool it down. Thats what my friend did when he installed mine. He works for his dad's uphostry shop. They do old time hot rods mainly, They even did lenny kratiz and vanilla ice's car too. So i knew they knew what they're doing. You'd think a small town shop in new orleans, LA would do some pop stars car, eh?

loose seats for big cars.....i think the hoe seats need to be tight because its not necessarily a luxury pimp car.....thats what a caddy is fo...
