Who makes the best aftermarket seat covers? CEET, Hi-Flite, BAD, saddleman, etc.? How hard are they to put on? what kind of stapler/staples do I need, and will I need a heat gun?
Thanks

i think the over all quality of each company is the same (very good) but i only have experience with CEET, i have a cover on my 400ex, glossy vynal sides with gripper top. one of the keys to a good seat cover is being able to see it on a quad be for you buy it. good luck

 

before you put it on, throw it in a clothes dryer for a couple of minutes on medium heat. This makes it much more pliable and easieer to install.

 

I am helping a friend put on a CEET cover in his 86 LT250R. Where can I find short staples? They have to be like 1/8" so they don't stick out the cover. I didn't have this problem with my 250R CEET and foam but that was a HONDA not suzuki.

 

I gave up. There is a local upholstery shop that recovers ATV and Jet-Ski seats, and does a factory job, so I took my seat by there and he quoted me $50 to recover it. CEET covers for it run around $45 for a stock looking cover, so I figure it's worth $5 for installation. He came recommended (i seen a warrior seat he did that looked great), so we'll see. I pick it up tomorrow at dinner.
