I'm in the process of getting mine done. They will look about the same as yours. I like it. Steering wheel looks good too. That must have taken a while to do. LockDoc

Re: Buddy Buckets installed
It takes about an hour and a half to stitch a wheel by hand the way I do it.
What color is your interior?

Re: Buddy Buckets installed
I made the steering wheel cover from leather I had left over from doing Cessna 182 seats.
