Just curious about this one,it does not seem like it is that hard, just sew them on and then aqua seal the inside where the stiches come through, what do you think?
 
I've glued 'em on.

Sewing them is a different matter. Send it to Gamble or Superior if you want them sewn on would be my recommendation. Any time you put holes in the suit there is an increased chance for it to leak. There are several hundred needle holes when sewing pockets on.
 
Building a car is easier. If you have a car building factory.
 
I'm lucky. I use OCEANSUITS to build all my stuff. Only thing I don't fiddle with. Oh I have also built a car without a car building factory.
 
I glued mine on as well using aquaseal. They have been on for two years. > 150 drysuit dives.

I recently glued pockets on all my wetsuits using the same method. The only complaint is that the pockets are not cheap.
