Re: Voltage regulation with a Zener diode
Make sure you have good ground connections. I remember seeing an article on FordBarn about how to check with an ohm meter. A bad ground will cause the voltage to go high.

Re: Station Wagon Seat Covers or Fabric Source
The rear seat in my wagon was redone and the upholsterer stated that the closest he could find was school bus seat fabric. I really can not tell a difference when comparing to the other seats.
