I just replaced the upholstry on my Wifes' 2006 4 Runner and I swear whoever assembled the drivers seat was a day one rookie. I found almost every anchor point had 3 to 4 missed hog rings in each location. I've always used knotched slip joint pliers for my hog rings. Mainly because I don't do that much upolstry! But after all the time it took to remove all the Factories "extra" hog rings I broke down and bought a set of nice angled hog ring pliers. Mainly because I'm thinking of redoing all of my project cars seats..... Good video. My tip for the day: I usually will drop about a dozen or so, rings in one of those magnetic bowls, rather than have to sort through 500 tangled up rings in a bag. Much easier to seperate 2 or 3 and I can stick the bowl on any metal surface, even on it's side without spilling the hog rings. And a lot harder to knock the dish off the table and spill them all over the floor. Most seat bottoms only need 10 or 12 rings I've found. So a quick sprinkle of hog rings around inside the bowl and they are right there.

Good comment! Thanks for the tips! I have also seen this in factory installations. What I do is drop about 10 hog rings on the table, and they naturally seperate.

Excellent video 👍. Something I learned recently from a company that makes seat covers is to sharpen your pliers. If you make them more pointed it makes for a more seamless transition from the pliers' arms to the rings. I found it helps make it so the arm doesn't get caught as much on listings and foam and such.
