I just finished replacing the seat back chrome piping on my
79 Trans Am as the originals were starting to turn brown from old age.
Ames sells the replacement piping that snaps on to the original GM seatbacks
with no adhesive required. I was pleased to discover that they can be installed
without removing the seat backs, making it a 15 minute job to do both seats.
They are designed to be a little long on the ends, so you will want to install them then cut the ends to the right length with a sharp pair of diagonal wire cutters.
The one gripe about them is that at the bottom ends where they curve towards
the front of the seats the curve is not quite as sharp as it needs to be for a perfect fit, but once you get them on they look fine.
