Didn't have to open the rear window either.

Great, thanks!

Can't say I remember the free smokes thing, that's a little before my time.

[MENTION=134559]Rnlcomp[/MENTION] LOL...I'm not that old. You said you smoked 30 years. Or were you talking bout your Dad or some one else? I got out of high school in 1983, so It was back in the 80's time frame when I remember them passing out the samples.

Class of 82.

I started when I was 16 and I quit when I was 46 but don't remember any cig give away. Must have been busy doing something else or they didn't do it all over.

Okay. I grew up in Columbus Ohio. They were giving them away there.
Class of 82? That is when my husband graduated.

[MENTION=141037]Azuri[/MENTION] Hi Azuri, I have that same seat configuration in my truck. How was it putting the seat covers on the jumpseat? Did you have to do any modifications for it to fit tight and look good of the lid part? I saw on another thread how some one took the screws and stuff out and tucked it under so it can look neat. Also I read comments about how hard it was to do the headrests. Was yours hard to do or did you use the plastic method? (some one mentioned put a plastic bag on it first which makes it easier.)

@ComQuest The headrests were not that hard actually I think they may have changed the head rests design recently. They are no longer Velcro fasteners to close them off they use the same locking type mechanisms I see on the OEM seats now. A bit of tugging involved but not as hard as expected.

Yeah I did the stone family mod link located below three screws to take it it was really easy. (My wife did it lol so it was easy for me to watch) The out of the box fit around the cup holders is pretty bad but they didn't have much to work with based on the design.

Thanks to this video the back seats were a breeze. (for late models only)

Me and my truck went and rescued this little guy this evening. He was sleeping on a garbage bag near a dumpster.

[MENTION=99169]Butters_33[/MENTION] Are you going to keep him? He looks scared. Good thing you found him.

I'll either adopt him out to a good home or keep him (I'm leaning towards the latter). He is scared but seems interested in my other dogs and the barn cats. I have him in a barn stall with some food, water and a toy to cuddle with, as well as a bed made of straw. He'll come around in time.

I have a soft spot for animals, I'm sure I would get attached to him and keep him.
