Installing replacement seats premounted on foam
Ok, I am replacing the seats in my 92 convertible with repacement seat already mounted on foam. How does the seat back come off? How does the button to lean seat forward come off? Are there already detailed instructions on the web somewhere. I tried the instructions on Wilcox and didn't seem to find them helpful (this is where the seats came from). Any help will be appreciated and as always, I know I will get excellent advice. Thanks guys!

The button on the back of the seat does not need to be removed, see the pictures below to understand how the cushion is attached. The blue arrows indicate the wire that must be pushed toward the center of the seat to release it from the attachment clips. You only need to unhook one side, then the back will slide out toward the side you released. Note the special tool shown is not required, you can notch an old screwdriver to do the same job.
Note that you may need to remove some excess foam from the back of the new cushions to install, some are way too thick. Hope that helps, good luck.
