[TR] TR4 Seat Back Hardware

[Brian Induni]

Geo,
I replaced my entire 4a interior last fall and the seat backs were one of
the most frustrating pieces! I found the clips thru TRF and Moss, but since
the new panels were made of thin wood (plywood), these clips were useless. I
ended up using two small chrome screws, one in each top corner, to hold the
panel on. Kind of dress it up too, imho.

Late TR4s (from 20877CT) have vinyl-covered masonite panels that form the
backside of the seat upright.  These panels are secured by a bunch of funny
little clips.  I recall that some or all of these are a type that clip on
thru
the holes in the masonite then slide (upward) into place to grip the seat
frame.

Anyone know of a source for these clips?  Alternately, a part number or
other
applications might help me source a few.  As a last resort there may be some
other type pf clip that works here?  I have seen some seats with screws used
to secure these panels -- works but not what I want to do.

Thanks for any help.

Geo
