Hello My truck( 1990 Montero) has been giving me problems not starting every so often. I had the starter and battery replaced and it was good for a few weeks but now I'm back to it not starting some times. I think it could be the battery cables as they are the original 26 year old cables. I...

I picked some second hand gen two seats and they are in pretty rough shape. I tool them to an upholstery guy and said if I can find a precut kit it would save me a whole tone in labor. So anyone see anything? I'm not picky on material. I searched the interwebs like crazy but came up blank .

Anyone know the size ?
