Tan leather shifter cover installed
I wanted everyone to see the tan leather cover with the stitching laced to match the steering wheel cover. I stitched it underneath then back over, which is the way my leather steering wheel cover is.
The tan one that I received had the top part rolled over but not the bottom. I actually like it fine this way so I am just going to leave it. The color and texture of the leather match my interior perfectly! Please keep this thread on topic. https://www.f150online.com/galleries...6-8-173854.jpg https://www.f150online.com/galleries...6-8-173853.jpg Here is a close-up of the stitching. You gotta love the Nikon D50! https://www.f150online.com/galleries...6-8-173864.jpg |

Looks great! I think that's how the Mark LT shifter is stitched as well.
Looks good, Duke |
Looks good, mine still hasn't got here.

Nice jod:thumbsup: I like the way you stiched yours. How hard was it to keep it tight doing it like that?

When I got to the bottom I ran it down into the last hole on each side and then went over and down into the opposite hole. I then tied a triple knot from underneath and cut off the excess. I guess those sewing lessons my mom gave me paid off. She used to be a sewing instructor. |
Looks good!

In my opinion, I think it looks better without the cover.

I stitched mine that way the first time, with the waxed thread.....but didn't like it at all in my truck.
So, I cut it off and used the white thread that matches the KR thread in the seats, and used the cross stitch this time. https://www.f150online.com/galleries...206-173833.jpg :wave: |

...and never fail to go out of your way to go against the grain. |

Thanks for the kudos. I think it's a nice upgrade; especially for those who didn't want to go down the LT ****er pathway. I had pressed Eddie to make these several months ago. Whitecrystal1 actually convinced him to make them. All in all, I think they turned out very nice all the way across the board. This mod isn't for everyone - no doubt. Everyone has opinions about how they want their truck to look but, for me, this is a nice little touch that makes a difference in look. In my opinion, it's these subtle touches that set certain trucks apart from the others. :thumbsup: |
