Sport seat assembly?
Can anyone describe to me how sport seats come apart or go together?
It appears the cushions, as least the center part of the seatback, may be held in place with velcro. Is it removable? Also it appears the leather that interfaces with the hard back shell "grips" the edge of the shell with some sort of grabber type mechanism to which it is sewn. See pic. Are the leather and the hard back shell able to be separated easily? Any other details about how sports seats are put together would be appreciated.

John,
Search the threads under "Sport Seats". I had a problem with the leather bolster coming off from the hard shell and found the thread below most helpful:

I bought an upholstery tool from the Snap-on website that looks like a putty knife with an angled blade to re-attach the bolster and the shell. Still haven't found a way to keep it coming apart though.
