31 r0adster seat installation
 

hello to all ; lets see what kinda help I can get on these questions. I will try to post pictures of what it is I'm trying to ask. this is not a kit , I made the seat back cover using a temp. material for practice, I installed it in the car to check the fit, I loosely installed the small side quarter panels and there is a space about 2 in. at the top of the seat which narrows down to nothing along side the seat .how is this space covered?? what am I missing here? can any one post a picture of what I think is called the shoulder panel and the seat back area?

Is your seat too far back? Shoulder panels should be right against the seat back.

Also when my roadster was first done, they installed the seat back upside down, with the narrower part up. That could cause it I think....

Can I ask you , do you know the size of your seat back spring? My spring measures 44'' across the top and 44'' in. across the bottom. its not tapered , my seat bottom spring on the other hand is tapered, it measures 38'' in. across the front and 44'' in. across the back. my be I have the wrong seat back spring? thanks THE HOOCH

Mine is a 29, and the springs have been replaced. I assume the back is correct, but I know my seat cushion is not, the radius at the front corners is too sharp, so My measurements would not be dependable.
