Looks really good. Major upgrade.
I was hoping the first step would be to vacuum out your truck haha. When the dog is in my truck, he makes a mess of hair everywhere but when we get back he goes in the house and the vacuum comes out.

You and me both! Haha jk, yes I actually did vacuum. I'm fact, I recorded clips for a separate Interior detailing video inspired by @Schauffer Garage
Hey I would like to get Katzkin leather installed in my new truck. Just want someone good at what their doing when installing. I also want blue stitching.
Cool video, nice work!

Here’s a tip. Don’t have background music playing when doing instructional videos.

Some people like it, some dont. But I can definitely try to tweak it for next time, thanks!
Isn’t turning the new seats inside out and then folding them down the better way to do this?
Thank you for this video!!

Cool instructional video. Really helps out! How would it work for the back seats? Are they easier? Thanks for the video

If you’re doing a DIY start with the rear 40 first. It comes out fairly easy and it’s pretty easy to do. The 60 on the other hand was a bitch. I had a pile of trouble getting that one back together. The fronts aren’t all that bad , just be careful with the airbags
How much do these cost roughly and where can I get them?
Good job👍🏻

Very slowly and while pushing down on the cushion.
It doesn’t say that they make one for Ford Fusion on their website ??
Can you remove the foam with the fabric still attached ? Say if you were going to swap from a manual to a power seat or put your seat foam and fabric on a new frame?

No worries about disconnecting the seats in terms of the airbag sensors?

Not at all. It's recommended to disconnect the battery first to reduce the risk of shorting them though.

Darrick, the new Ford models did away with hog rings and went to inserted plastic clips instead. The only downfall is they break easily. You can remove the cloth without breaking them though.

Man, I know you already have a center console in your truck, but that is swap video I'd like to see, swapping out the center seat for the center console. There is only one video out there and it sucks.

please turn the music down, cant hear YOU.. =)
You did a nice job at the video and instruction. Your voice got quiet at times. They make a decent product but still not the quality of a Katzkin. The price point probably reflects the difference. The stitching and corners are not as nice as I would like to see.
