IF the back rest is original, and maybe even the reproductions...you should see a bracket on the right and left bottom of the seat back...these brackets should have holes in them which allow you to put a screw into a D-nut which should be in the decklid itself.

My Decklid has the cut out for the D-nut but no D-nut so I had to take a D-nut, put tape on the back of it, attach that to the inside of the deck lid thus I was able to screw the screw into it with no problem.

Problem solved.

Hello Jimmy,


I have secured the bench from the bottom with "fokker needles." The backrest is screwed down with two aluminum strips for pushing down.
