One more tip: The headrest's are much easier to do if you remove them. Slide the seat all the way forward and recline them to remove it.

do the headrests have white threads on the leather seats? My cloth headrests only had black.

And to remind anyone thinking of doing this.

do NOT use red acrylic markers from

-DecoColor
-Sharpie

they come out really pink due to the silver color of the stiches (multipul layers did not help darken the color)

DO use the Elmers red acrylic. it is very a very solid primary red and will yield the best results.

These are only suggestions for Red acrylic, i cant speak to the quality of other colors in these brands or the dye as i didnt try either.
