I would like to upholster my own seat pan but I'm at a loss of how to attach the covering on the underside of the seat. For those of you who have upholstered and aluminum seat pan... What method did you used to secure the covering on the underside of the pan (snaps, rivets, clamp...)?
The stock seat appears to have barbs cut into the pan which the seat cover is stretched over. The barb method seems pretty unforgiving IMO and I think it would be hard to get the material stretched evenly and secured using a barb method for a first timer.
I would love to see some photos of the underside of the seats showing the method you used along with a brief narrative of your process.
Thanks,
Jon
