Hey bud. Actually i am so busy with work that i just bought eveythjng from rockauto and they show up at my doorstep. As far as the seats go i didnt use any kind of product just the powerwasher itself. They stilll came out decent. Only issue i am having now is that it rained a couple of days ago and i saw water puddles om both sides of rear floorboard. Luckily i hadnt installed the carpet yet.

I am going to try the pressure washer on my bench seat today. Mine is just dirty from dirt and dust. We shall see!

Power wash it, then hit it with the wet/dry vac.

New Pioneers all around
The seal on the ext cab windows was getting a little weak so i fed them some surgical tubing to bring back that perfect seal.
To my surprise, not much rust under the rear seat cubby.

I pressured washed my bench seat, but before I hit it with the pressure washer, I sprayed it down with Clorox bleach spray. I vacuumed most of the water out and then let them air dry.
While I had the bench seat out, I vacuumed the carpet and clean it real good with a portable Rug Doctor vacuum. I plan on reinstalling the bench seat tonight.
