[TR] TR6 Seat Rebuild

[Carl TR]

Does anyone know if there is a similar 'how to' for TR3 seats.
Thanks
Carl

Here's a great guide that VB used to produce on re-doing your TR6 interior
and covers everything from seats to carpet to panels. Maybe it will help

I think the TR6 seats are a similar framework design to the TR4...

That is also how Roger Williams' book describes the job in his TR4 book.
But after looking at the finished product (p 161) I concluded that
upholstery is not his long suit (his reupholstered seat looks
awful) and went my own way which included gluing nothing.

Worked fine and the seats look great.  Really, once its all clipped on,
nothing's going anywhere.

Perhaps this view is too late for you but for others, not gluing simplifies
the install and leaves you more options later on.
