Installing them is more work than you expect. Don't use hog ring pliers. Reuse 
the wires in the seat bases. Don't break off the sharp points that anchor the 
old covers, just straighten them carefully and reuse them. Jet good cushion 
material and put a piece of sturdy carpet stitched face down against the 
springs.

It is often helpful to slip a cover of some other material over the seat so 
that the new seat cover will slip into place.
