Default dying the seat covers...

i don't know if this is the right forum for these so if its not please correct me. I bought some seat covers that are black with royal blue on the sides and middle. i want to dye the royal blue to more of a dark blue to match the exterior of the car more. anyone have any clue how to dye fabrics?

I dont know, but when i lean back in the mid back support part of the seat, it pushes in and out and makes a popping noise, slight and real faint, but its there. My seat is going out, lol

right forum.

id personally suggest Google. that has given me a wealth of info on diy. the key is in the use of Key Words

"how to Dye fabric"

"Seat dye"

"cloth dye"

"Modern Dye process"

hope someone can tell you how to do it
