Question:

Could you tell me how the seat cover works?
Is it easy to put on over regular seats? Is it slip on?

Alan

Answer: The seat covers that we sell are a replacement part.

It replaces the original one, you remove the old staples and

then remove the old seat cover .

The seat cover has a easy fit system, which includes a pocket in the

front of the cover to ease the installation process.

But you will need an electric or air powered stapler and

stainless staples for installation.
