We used some micro fiber covered foam pads and you really have to force it in. It comes as a liquid and you have to buff it on until you can't see it in most places and then buff it off with a micro fiber towel. It took me and a friend 1-2 hours to do the entire truck.

These are all before the body compound and good cleaning, except for the last one.

Yeah, I've got to find some seat covers though. The whole interior is almost perfect and a giant stain in the seat would suck. I haven't really found any decent made-to-fit covers yet.

my interior is almost perfect as well...i love it. everyone admires my 20 year old red interior, its roomy! but there are always leaves on the floor because i park near trees so leaves fall in the bed then blow in through the back sliding window when i'm driving- best way to cruise though!

I have a '92 with an 8' bed and my front tank is 16 gal and the rear is 19 gal but it might be different on yours.
