Hey guys, John here with RealTruck.com.
Today I want to show you how to install the Clazzio Perforated Leather Seat Covers onto
a Chevy Silverado.
All right guys, you can see here we've got our seat covers all out of the box and laid
out.
We have them all organized as to which ones are front and back.
We're going to do the back first so when you get to the back the first thing you want to
do is to fold up the bottom, because we're going to put the bottom one on first.
So once you have that folded up, then you can take the bottom cover and you're going
to slide it over the top of the bottom of your seat.
Now keep in mind, guys, that when you're doing this, these things are designed to be very,
very tight going on here.
Now once you get these mostly on there, then what you're going to do is to let this down,
because we need to put this through there.
Make sure that when you do this that your seatbelts are not trapped underneath your
seat cover.
We'll raise this back up and get down here and get a hold of that part that we just pushed
through the back.
And what we're going to do is hold this down really tight.
Once you've got that stretched down there pretty well, the next thing is to start putting
this together.
I usually like to start right here in the middle.
You can see there these are a real nice good looking fit, and this stuff looks factory
in here, guys.
Do this side the same way we did the other side; just take it and slide it over.
I don't know if you guys can see this in the camera, but right here, these are hooks that
are put in here so you can install a car seat in the back of your truck, so you want to
make sure that you put your seat cover down underneath those, for two reasons.
One, so you still have access to that hook; and two, because it won't go over the top
- if you try to put it over the top you're going to end up fighting with it for a long
time.
This one is better to start at the end.
And that's the bottom on this side.
So we'll fold this back down and take a look.
As you can see, it looks just as nice as the other side.
Before we put our seat backs on, one of the things we need to do is to remove our headrest.
And it's really an easy process to remove the headrest.
All you need is some type of a little pick or something like this, and right in the bottoms
of these places where the headrest slides into there's a couple of holes in there.
You just push in on that and that will allow that headrest to slide up, just like that.
Then you can just pull it right out of there.
All right, we have our headrest off, so now we need to install the back of our seat cover.
What we're going to do is we're just going do the same thing as we did with the bottoms.
We're going to slide it right down over the top of the seat.
Now just so you know, one of the things you're going to want to do to give yourself a little
more space back here in the back, is to make sure that the seat bottom is up, because it'll
pull the back away from the wall of the truck and give you a little more room to get the
seat cover down inside here.
One of the things to keep in mind is that you might have to smash this headrest down
a little bit.
It's not a big deal.
It's got foam rubber inside of it.
It will re-expand and regain its shape just fine.
I'll pull this over and then this actually flips up and slides inside that plastic piece.
Guess we got our cover on our head rest, so now it's just a matter of putting it back
in and it's very simple to put it back in.
Just stick it up on there, give her a little click down, and there you go.
And it's just that simple.
So we have got this seat completed.
Now we're going to go ahead and finish up that side and then we'll have this whole back
done and we can get started on the front.
Now we're going to put our back cover on this side.
And what we need to do is make sure that we get it under the seat belt actually.
We'll take that off.
We'll pull this up here like so, and then what we want to do is lift the bottom of our
seat up here to get some more space on the back edge so we can tuck this down and under.
Okay, make sure once you get your seat cover pulled down to where the top of it is up against
where your head rest normally rides, to go ahead and take your tabs where your head rest
plugs into and it's real easy.
Just push the seat cover underneath those tabs and then it'll be out of the way for
putting your head rest back in.
Okay guys, we've got the back of our seat cover on.
We've got it all in place now.
So the next step of our process is to put our cover on our cup holder arm rest here,
and it works just like the rest of the seat covers where you just slide it over.
And then if you remember up on the top where we did the head rest slots, it's kind of the
same thing with this part here.
What we're going to do is we're just going to tuck it up underneath.
And then the covers come with this handy little tool that you can use to help to get that
up underneath there.
We have the back all done; it's looking really nice.
Now we're going to do something with these cloth front seats, so we're going to go ahead
and put our covers onto our front and we'll start by doing the bottom first.
So let's get these front ones done and looking good.
Now these front ones are pretty simple, easy stuff.
They just pretty much slip on just like slipcovers on your couch or your chair or something like
that in your house, so that's a pretty easy way to do it.
Now these strings here which we're going to use to pull this thing tight; what we want
to do with these is don't be so concerned about where they go.
We just want to find a comfortable route for them.
Usually I like to get them on the outside of the seat belt so I can get them down underneath
it and pull them around on the bottom.
And this piece we're just going to tuck it underneath the seat back.
And then we're just going to feed this back through here.
A couple of straps attach to the front; we want to run those through to the back, but
just kind of make sure when you're running those through there that you don't put them
in any place that's going to interfere with your seat slide release lever.
The first thing we need to do to do the back of our front seat is remove our head rest,
and to do that, you just push in on these two buttons right here; then just pull her
right out.
And then I'll get that off and out of our way.
Then we'll just take our cover for the seat back and slide it over the top of the seat.
Then we'll tuck this underneath our mounts for our head rest and do the same thing on
both of them.
Once we get everything all done at the top, then we'll pull this flap through, stick the
Velcro right to that carpeted piece.
Then we'll take these hooks that ...The easiest way to do the head rest, guys, is to put it
back on.
As you can see we've got all of our seat covers onto the truck, and they look pretty good.
They've got a factory look to them.
It doesn't even look like seat covers on here as you can see; it looks like OE factory seats,
which is awesome.
So I think the owner of this truck is going to be really pleased with this install.
And now you can see how to install the seat covers onto your 2014 Chevy Silverado.
So remember, until next time, happy motoring.
