Hi

I am in the middle of stripping down my drivers seat for for my cabby. I have managed to strip it down so far until the base left and right leather sections wont come off?
It looks like the base needs to be broke down further so the leathers can come off.
Any of you guru's done it before?

Hi

I have done this recently...
Is this on a sports seat?

If so, the seat bolsters have metal rings that link the inner edge to the seat, and the outer edges are held with spikes that come out of the seat base - you will have to take the back frame off of the base to do this

Hope that helps :D
