- Probably a real dumb question, but I've looked at the Moss catalog and can't find the answer. Do the seat kits include foams, backs, webbing, etc.? Or does seat "kit" mean just covers? Thanks, Monte

- Monte, Just the covers. All the other parts are a'la carte. The seat back foams are particularly tricky. Lots of variation in product out there. -- Rod Williams Petaluma, California 1967 MGB

- Those seat backs are icky. I've recovered 6 sets of MGB seats... its ritardedly easy... but often the seams on the side of the seat do not line up with the shape of the foam. Most "restored" MGBs jus

- Good to hear! I started front and then clipped the back. I dont remember what I did here, probably took a deep breath and poked a hole with an awl. I do remember having to stuff the "pockets" with h

- Does anyone have any experience installing the leather aftermarker Moss leather seat kits for later MGB's? The back stffener is supplied flat and I am kind of afraid of it. If I don't get something d

- The back stiffener card can be steamed slightly to make it easier to shape. It will work ok dry tho'. Use a contact adhesive and tape to hold the card to the frame while the glue takes. The card is

- I am going to take a stab at it. Infered in both responses is the stiffener needs to be bowed to the extent that it mates up with the frame? Good advice re: take the time to do a good job, there will

- Never fear... that stiffener is your friend. You need a roll of tape (masking tape worked just fine for me.) If memory serves me, here's what I did: First, clean the frame with thinner and let it dr
