Default How to install seat covers

OK, these are the GM seat covers (cloth) that Ecklers sells.... how do you install these ? Any special tools/skills needed ??
These are $450 so I'd rather not mess them up....

Options are:
used seats for $400-500
new cloth seat covers for $450

Cloth would be cooler than leather, I'm pretty much tired of hot leather seats in the FL sun ...
