[Tigers] M1A seat redo

                I believe this is clip your asking about even though this seat uses the strap style, the clip should be the same.

Note the orientation of the clip – I’m almost certain this seat has never been work upon or restored.

The clip is in a position so that it will not dig into the seat cushion or other parts of the seat.

 

Looking at a diaphragm seat that I know has been worked on – you have no choice for the side rails – the straight pin end goes into the holes in the tube and the hook end holds the diaphragm.  For the front and back of the diaphragm you have a choice of direction but I think down and not poking into the cushion is correct.

Gentlemen,

I am in the process of redoing my drivers seat and I have a question. I apologize in advance for the what will probably end up being obvious but I wish to do it right the first time. I have seen and read the Tigers United how to on this topic but am still unsure of the proper placement of the”G” shaped rubber diaphragm retaining clips. Does the small clip end go through the frame or through the holes in the rubber diaphragm? And do they go above the rubber or connect below, that is, when viewing the assembled seat from the bottom can you see the majority of the exposed retainer clip or just the ends? Or does any of this really matter? They appear to fit either way.Brad
