I used 3/8 stainless staples. Take your time an its easier if you an extra set of hands

these new seats are a b*tch to put seat covers on...I ended up taking mine to a upholstery shop,lol

also a heat gun and extra hands are necessary

Place it in the sun or in the dryer to warm it up. Makes it a
little easier to stretch. I have the identical cover and it was tougher than most to stretch for some reason.

Seat covers suck putting on and digging all of the staples out from the old one. I took mine to my local upholstering shop and they charged me $20. It was well worth it.

I have a question on the quad tech hump seat, sometimes when I ride trails my girlfriend rides with me. Can u fit two people on the hump seat? Or is the hump to far up?

Yeah, thats the only bad thing about the shipping from Canada is having to wait for them to go through customs. I had mine after 5 days and it took my brother's 2 weeks to be delivered.
