The springs aren't that hard to replace if you have the right tools but for
the money I would recommend a pro. I had mine done for $50 each. I stripped
the seats, blasted the frames and POR15'ed them. Then I took them to him and
I supplied the covers and the foam. He fixed the springs, supplied the
burlap and added some foam. The repo foam just didn't fill out the seats
like I wanted them.

Subject: [Chevelle-list] Bucket Seats
So, I took the old seat covers off my buckets seats and it looks like the
springs are broken in several places. I saw that reproduction spring
assemblies are available, but they recommend "Professional Installation".
Has anyone tried this at home? They seemed to be held in by metal tabs on
the seat frames in several places, but is there more to it? I was going
to recover these seats myself, but now I'm debating if I should have a pro
tackle this. What do you guys recommend?
Thanks,
Matt
