Hi -
I've gotten some new rear seat covers from SewFine, and I can't find a way to compress the rear seat down all the way around enough to get the cover strecthed down over the frame and clipped on. Anyone have any tips about that? Any ideas appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Lay it upside-down on a clean, solid table and lay your forearms across the springs...now put all your weight on it...unless you're an 8 year old girl...you should be heavy enough to install cover. Wink

Get the cover very warm. Let it sit out in the sun on a sunny morning. Have an 8 year old girl put it on.
