Hi Shawn,
(B) was the original method used by trimmers skilled in curved needle
work.
(A) can be used with our modern SuperGlues, not available back in the
day. Normal contact adhesive doesn't work with vinyl to vinyl.
The intent was to fold the outer ear up to the piping ball with a near
invisible joint. Glue will accomplish this, but if you want the original
slightly bumpier look, then stitch.
The picture is of an original seat ear with the Hidem strip removed
(hence the tack holes). Note the little cut along the bottom which is
the transition between the folded over edge to the main cover sitting
behind the lower piping bead.
Best regards,
Peter
