Hello all, I recently finished a motorcycle seat for a man. He was very satisfied and proceeded to ask me if I could install premade vinyl seat covers on his C5 Z06 Corvette. I have a Jiffy steamer on the way which should help with the fitment. I have not yet installed covers on this style of seat and I am curious if anyone can suggest approximately how long it may take. Thanks in advance. Photo is off the internet for reference

Are you removing the seats to install the covers or are the seat already out of the car?
Are the covers split down the sides so it is easier to install or are you having to roll the skins all the way down the seat?

Premade covers are hard to estimate. Sometimes they are easy sometimes they are a nightmare. It all depends how well they fit and if you have to fiddle around with adding foam in places to make it fit right. I never will give a set price on premade covers because they are so hit or miss on how they fit.
