i recently got a sew fine interior kit. I removed the interior of my 86 westy and installed sound proofing and am ready to install the front seat upolstery.

My question concerns the seat back upolstery. The pictures on sewfines website shows wires along the bolster seams which look like they wrap arroud the seat back and tie off on the back of the seat frame. In the pictures it looks like the wire threads into a sleeve and maybe a hog ring is also used. My seams dont have a sleeve . Can anyone out there clarify that for me. Shocked

Go to my build thread, maybe 1/2 way through will be a whole "how to" from when I did my seats.
