Default Help with installing a seat cover

Does anyone know of the best kind of gun or technique to get the staples into the extremely hard plastic?

Default Help with installing a seat cover

yeah ive put a seat cover on u only use like a 1/8 inch staple its not very long but u put alot of them in there do u have any knowledge of putting one on? if not its pretty simple take the front of seat staple it in the middle to hold it then stretch the back over and staple in the back 2 cornors and just go with it make it as tight as possiable the tighter the better...lol make sure its straight and if u bought a graphics kit with it make sure u do the seat first or else the graphics wont line up with it. you can use a regular stapler but it didnt work on my 250r because of the place u had to staple the cover too if u can do it with a regular one do it if not get a air stapler that will put them in the deep part.

An air stapler really makes it easy. I have seen some people put them on over the original cover. That seems to keep from getting a fold in the middle. At least on bikes it does.
