    hey man, you need to clean it really good first.......water and some cleaner for cloth interiors, and use a shop vac to vacuum it all out. then, you can use something like febreeze, or some aspen air.........and something that works really well, no kidding, is some scent killer form wal mart on the isle where the hunting stuff is. that stuff works really good man........and it takes all different kinds of scents away!!

    Stop farting on your seats bro! :p

    j/k I always wash them with a carpet cleaner, then let them dry on the sun a bit.... but i guess Will's advice is better...

    it shouldnt, as long as it isnt too stiff. if its a little flexible, then its ok.

    Nothing at the moment
    I have used a Bissell Little Green (I think that's what it was called as I had borrowed it) and it did a great job cleaning my old cloth mustang seats. It is essentially a carpet cleaner but much smaller. I think you can buy them at Walmart and aren't all that expensive if you have chairs or seats sofa's, etc. that you need cleaned frequently. You have to buy specific solution for it, but as I recall it's only 3-4 dollars. Also, I used to make a 90/10 mix with febreeze (10% febreeze) just be se sure to rid the stench a while longer.
