I need to replace the Saleen seats in my Focus. They are faded as hell and the passenger seat is broken! I wanted to swap out the seats from my "part car," an 04 ZTS. The problem is that the color doesn't match. I want the seats to be red and black.

So my question is how would you recommend I dye the seats? Does anybody have a link or some advice for me? Thanks a ton guys.

Wouldn't recommend dying the seats - particularly on the seat cushion and seat back 'inset' area where you want the red part to be. I would suggest checking with a good auto upholstery outfit. They can maybe just replace the 'inset' area with some kind of matching fabric or leather. If you don't know of any place, get a referral from a large body shop (Where do they send work like that?)

if this isnt possible, you will have to visit your local upholstery shop

you dont have airbags in your seats do you? if so, your F'd.

This interests me since my drivers seat is broken and I am buying another seat from another 2005 and it might not match.
