    Cool! I have ordered some myself for my 1995 Super Sport. Did you install them yourself, if so, any words of wisdom?

      Does she normally respond quickly to the online request form? I put in a request a few days back and have yet to hear back. The jack*** who waxed my boat last got wax on the top of my rear seat backrest, and now it's stained a light blue! Nothing I've used has been able to get it out, so I'm thinking about just re-skinning it.

          There is a thread in here somewhere about do's and don'ts. Search under my name and DavidF. We did ours around the same time. One of these days I plan on posting a how-to in the DIY forum.

              they send the same instructions with your new skin but its not that hard to install but the matching of the white samples can make your head hurt dont pull of the old skins into you get the new ones

                  A lot of what David and I posted was from the Nautiqueskins instructions, but not everything we posted came from that. Some of what we posted came from learning the hard way.

                    Thanks Chexi! Great info in those posts! I have the back three skins ordered...I may bring the seats here and see what I am getting myself into. I am thinking of investing in a pneumatic stapler since I am eventually going to re-do the skins on the entire boat. Just need to decide on the type I need to get. Cheers!

                      I just picked up a set of rear seat skins and the loveseat bottom from the discount section. Talk about savings.

                        When you are installing seat bottoms, be sure to score the extra material at the seam around rounded corners. If you don't, you may get some bumps in the vinyl at the corner due to this extra material having to crease to make the corner. These bumps may not be apparent at first, but after a few days in the sun they can appear. I had to re-do a couple cushions due to this.
