OK, Sergio finished the back seat. I decided to stay with the white pleated vinyl instead of the cloth. This white vinyl is marine vinyl and the pleats are embossed not sewn. Sergio says easier to clean. Wachyallthink.

Hey Dick,
I love the upholstery and the fact you incorporated the clips is great.
You're really picking up steam and getting closer to completion every day.

Its great you thought to retain the buckles. I deviated from the stock upholstry and neglected to use or save the buckles. Not one of my swifter moves. The seat looks super!
