    Having taken auto upholstery I'd recommend skipping the tailor (unless he has auto upholstery experience) and go straight to the upholstery shop.

    Good luck!

    Further thought and investigation makes me agree with you. I do have some good tartan that can blend well with the colors of the new truck, so, when I can fit it into the schedule, I'll go in search of an upholstery shop.

    Although, I am still hopefull of finding some ready made, as I think they will be cheaper than custom......??
