Thanks for the info Chris,

I will do a test first on some junk parts first before continuing further
with it.  From the information I gathered online in various car/truck/jeep
forums they say the vinyl dye works great. Some mixed responses on the
fabric dye.

What brand of the fabric dye did you use if you remember?
