Lots of covers made.
Katzkins are really nice.

The Captain's chairs are the exact same buckets as the 40-20-40.

The center twenty is sometimes the hard thing to cover. Everyone makes covers for them, many look like bags over the center armrest.

Um, no, mine are take offs from a Lariat. Cost under a 100, put them on myself. Price has gone up on those though.
Katzkins are VERY nice. Do a search in this forum.
Here is a link to a long thread on this;

I assume you are now asking about putting on a Harley Grille (You may have lost me at the switch) if so, putting one on is very easy. Unbolt the old grille, put it somewhere it won't get marked up, put on the new grille. If you have to remove the surround (it only comes in black) that takes a little longer. Instructions with pictures have been posted several times, search under Harley Grille.

Search 'leather seats'
Twenty great write-ups on that. Every possible detail. But if you are paying someone to do a twenty minute grille swap you may not be inclined to do a seat cover install. Those are factory seat covers, not slip ons. There are some slip ons for our trucks, Search Seat Covers and you can see a lot of them.
