i just ordered the proper seat covers and headliner for my chally. does anyone have any advice for installing them or problems i might come across? thanks

The seat covers are not too bad to do. A hair dryer is handy after the covers are installed to take out the small wrinkles and to help form the material to all the contours. The headliner on the other hand is a bear. Usually takes a couple of people. works best with the front and rear glass out. You start at the rear and work your way forward. The hardest part is keeping the wrinkles out.

I took mine to an upholstery shop that worked on cars as well. They did the seats & carpet for about 300 us (labor only, I supplied the materials) and although it was a bit more expensive, they had all the steamer's and tools to do a very nice job. Just my opinion, but if you are going to look at it every time you drive, it better be perfect, or you'll not be satisfied.

I agree with Todd. Unless you are a really good do it your selfer, it all depends on what you want as an end result. My one friend always tells me to stick with what your good at!.... Well, if I haven't tried then how am I supposed to know if I'm good at it or not?

thanks guys i have a few weeks before the covers come in so maybe i'll get some prices because that is a good point if it's not perfect i'll notice it everytime i get in the car. this isn't 1 of the 10 camaros on my street it the only challenger and it deserves the best

The Camaro's won't get to see the interior, just the taillights!

But as you look over you shoulder as they fall further and further back, you can say, "damn, my seats look good!"
