I'm getting rid of the horse hair pads in my 65' bug with some foam pads, and getting my seats in better driving condition so they dont fall all over the place. I need to know some tips on putting it all together, such as where the pads go, how to stretch on the covers, putting on the hog rings, etc.

Nice e-mail address, by the way. Must be tough in the winter, though.
