You need to have a AMA (Ask Me Anything) session. Just as a teaser, here's what I'd ask you... In all the parts of something like the seat bottom job. What is the most rewarding to you? Pulling it over and seeing how it looks pulled over the foam? The reactions of the customers? Something we might never think of? I'm seriously thinking of buying a sewing machine and giving it a go. You were self taught... we have you! If I do, it will be because of your awesome videos! Thank you!!

My worry is that my patterning may not fit nice and snug. Is that why you put the sew foam on - to take up any spots where it may be a little off? (NOT that yours would ever a little off! LOL).

I wasn’t sure which video to leave this comment on, so let’s try it here. I am converting my truck seats from cloth to vinyl but I’d also like to put seat warmers in them. Do you recommend a way to do this? I’d also like to use the thicker foam behind the vinyl but I’m worried it will insulate too much and the heated elements won’t be as effective. I’m just looking for some good suggestions on how to do this the right way. Thanks in advance!

Modern leather is all coated in plastic. If you think about that fact, that means it's basically vinyl except the fabric backer is replaced by leather.

You are leaving a LOT of revenue on the table in views to get your little bit of ad revenue! Not the sharpest decision to make on KZitem. After a year, a normal channel (not disabling ad skip) for a video like this would have several hundred thousand views.
