recovering seats



Ok, now here's a baffler.

Got a pair of seats that I'm going to recover. First off, I'll never say
that the D seats were ever half-assed built, because of two words. Hog
rings. Damn there are a lot of them there!! Ok, so, got main back of the
seats pulled and the foam exposed. Problem is when you get to the
headrest. (I'm sure some of you already know where I am going with
this.) ok, so that little notch of leather between the main seat and the
headrest is a nice addition, but is a pain to work around. Two sets of
hog rings holding that together. Ok, so I dealt with that and now here
is the problem. How do I get the covers off the headrest without
damaging the foam? And worse yet, how do I get new covers back on and
the hog rings into spaces to re-establish that "notch" ?

Am I in for any other surprises? It makes me wonder how they covered
these things in the first place.
