E D Auto Upholstery

This is the second Ford that developed, at around year seven, a tear in the leather seat in the exact same spot under the driver’s butt. Some would suggest that speaks to the (low) quality of leather that Ford uses. Others (my husband) would suggest «you’re sitting on it wrong». After slugging him, i will just call this the Ford Seven-​Year Itch.
I’ve had no car payment for several years — which is soooo nice — and while the car has seven years of wear and tear, it’s got a whole lot more life in it. Plus a tear in a seat shouldn’t be your primary motivation when deciding to buy a car. But what to do? It’s getting cooler out and if I just left the tear exposed would my beloved bun warmer burn my beloved buns? Suggestions for «fixes» like those Hawaiian seat covers (or, of course, duct tape) elicited eye rolls and derision from the younger generation of our family. Finding a replacement at a junk yard sounded expensive, and like so much work — and would likely render my bun-​warmer inoperable. So what to do indeed.
Enter ED Auto Upholstery. Rick did an awesome job for us. He was on time for our appointment, was super personable, and explained our options. He advised that once he started working our dry, worn leather, if it began disintegrating as he tried to sew, he’d have to replace the leather panels adjacent to the one with the tear as well (he gave us quotes for both scenarios). He was fast (3 hours) and he did quality work. He did end up doing the adjacent panels as well — and he came in _​under_​the quoted amount. Excellent!
My seat looks great! And who doesn’t love buns with no burning and no (Seven Year) Itch? Happy Buns! Happy car! Happy me!

Rick did our 2004 Armada drivers seat and arm rest. He did very good, quality work.

I went early Feb for a stitching repair job on a 1998 canvas Jeep top. Repairs and service where prompt and excellent. He called when it was ready and he was kind enough to sew on a part of the canvas I forgot to bring the first time. Prices where affordable, but cash only. Great place and quality work. I will be coming back.

I dealt with Rick. He was simply outstanding! Honest. Did what he said he would do and did it on time. Class act. Very affordable. I HIGHLY recommend his work and him! Completely impressed. I brought a car in that had several tears in the seats. He made them look like new!

when i initially looked for a place to fix my backseat for my 2012 honda civic, didnt know where to go. as i was calling around, i noticed the professionalism and friendliness right away. i was initially sketched out because the lack of a website or reviews on Unilocal,but because of the reasonable price quote, i figured i might as well.
because my car was new, he told me that i needed to get the material from my dealer, which wasnt too bad. after i got the material and dropped off my car, he did the work the same day and did a reasonable job.
for the price and the speed, i wasnt too upset. it’s not as flush as how it came factory, but it’s almost good as new. for the price, speed, experience, i would comeback again. they only accept cash/​check so something else to consider.

ED quoted me a price to have my 04 Sebring top replaced if I ordered on and brought it with me. He had the best price but atop that, he was more personable and genuine over the phone, returning my call promptly the following monday morning. I will be scheduling the replacement this week with him. Will update you as to what transpires. So far so good.

Fair prices, solid workmanship — this one’s a winner. We’ll go see Rick again if we need other interior work done. This time, he replaced the top on our convertible. He kept us informed along the way, even was happy to talk us through some questions about the top/​motor before he even had our business. Some places we called wanted us to bring the car in for a diagnostic (aka — get paid to tell us what we already knew — motors out, tops torn!). Rick talked to us about what we already knew about the car and got the top & motors installed quickly.
Thanks, Rick.
