I am redoing the upholstery in my 30` roadster. I did not make enough notes on the front back rest where the material transitions at the top of the seat to the (2) metal seat supports, where the hardwood trim wraps around. I know how to attach the metal supports but do not remember how the material is attached. There is also another separate piece of material that ties in with the seat. I have included some photos that might help. Any info or detailed photos of how this part of the installation would much appreciated. Thank You.

Wow - didn't know how different the 30 is from the 29. I just redid my seat last fall. Sent you a PM

Thanks for the photo. Except that my hardwood wrap around is originally exposed, I see that flat space between the back of the seat and wrap around is where I need to that piece of vinyl thats curved on the ends. I also noticed that your piece has been screwed down where mine has no holes. Thanks again. Richard
