New seat cover draw string vs spikes

[Guest]

Hey guy i just received a new seat cover made by travelcade fro my 82 750 E although the cover is for 80-81 E i think it will fit. my question is do i just tighten the string in the back or should i use the hooks in the seat pan to install it? im missing a few hooks in the pan so not sure how well i can attach it with remaining ones?

i would use bother if possible, but hooks for sure as string alone has attendance to stretch and so on

Hi,

When I replaced my seat cover I used the hooks to hold the string after I stretched and tightened as much as I could. Read about it here: Seat Cover Replacement.


Thank you for your indulgence,

I havent done it yet, but these are my solution to the rusted off clip issue...

Hog rings are a common way to clip upholstery... Worked for me.

what would i attach them to? hog rings are great if you got a rail but if its just the edge i dont see how they can work
