neone install seat covers?need help/advice on how 2 get top part of bucket seat tight

ive got a leatherseats.com kit .. doing the rear seat wasnt too bad but the front 2 buckets seats are craazzzzyyy hard ... when you read how to do it, it looks and sounds SO easy.... but when you actaully start tearing the seat apart, its freaking complicated ... I was able to complete the bottom cushion on one of the bucket seats but I have no idea how to make the upper/top part tight against the foam.... anyone do this?, if so can you please explain how to do this? ... shops want 395$ for 2 bucket seats! .. also im in the philly area if anyone wants to do this for some extra cash and a case of beer ... thanks, Rick

also curious! I bought some OEM tan leather covers. I haven't gotten around to installing them yet, but when I get around to it, I would like to know of any problems that may arise. bump.

you just got to fold the cover and reach your hands in there, grab both metal rods and ring them together in as many places possible.. just look at the seat cushons first to see where the rings are supposed to be...
