|
|
I purchased one of these from Everett, and neither of us can figure out how it attaches to the seat.
It *seems* as if there might be a metal clip missing from inside the tab, or perhaps some sort of small set screw.
Any tips?
Thanks! _________________ Ice Blue '67 Squareback |

The first ones 61-65 had no clip, just slip on. The metal, chrome ones had a clip 66-69? then the later blak ones had?? I going from memory here. Ive alway eithor glued or been able to stick them back on. But Ive only mostly messed with early plastic. I dont think the mid plastic chrome ones had a clip.? What kind do you have? _________________
