RE: seats , trying again

[Kevin Merkley <krmerkley@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Neal,

Another option is to remove the bolt that holds the seat back rigid and 
have the entire front seat back flip forward.  It would save you a lot 
of worrying about the correctness of the seat material.

Also, would a 2 door not have a split seat anyway?  If you have taken 
out the original seat, then Bob's comments about number matching is even 
more valid.

Regards,

K.
