PLEASE HELP WITH MY SEATS if you have 70 style
I was told these were 1970 seats when I bought them. Not sure what year cars they came in. I put the seats in to get a feel for the look of the inside. I noticed the guy did not put the clips or pin or whatever clips on to the stud???
should I go back and raise cain, or can I buy whatever goes here??
I like the look of the 70 interior. making my inside like that with console also.

Quake,
Your seat covers are different than the woven style vinyl covers that I bought. I kinda like those.
Question 1.
It would take a lot of spring tension to spread the seat backs enough for them to fall apart BUT get the right sized E-Clip and snap on there, then the cover if you have it.
Question 2.
Pretty big gap, pretty sure that mine are basically the same. I am not completely sure but think that may be by design to allow the seat to fold.
I am anxious to see how that 4th gen shifter handle will look with the boot on mounted in the 70-2 console.

I had the shop do a custom stitch covering. I guess they just copied
the old fabric and made this style. Im very happy with it!! |

My 70 seats do not look like they have the covering you do. Maybe an aftermarket design?
