 I'm im the process of installing the new lether covered foam cushions in the 80. Inside the buckets there are clips which hold everything in place. One of mine is missing. I have called my usual parts vendors with no luck. Anyone got any ideas.

 

Thanks

I'd bet it's a fairly standard part. Start first with an upholstery shop. I wouldn't be surprised if the dealer didn't have them too. I know they come with an installation kit that Doc Rebuild sells too.

If you are talking about those little spring steel S shaped clips with barbs on one end, I have some. I could send some to you in a envelope, my dime, if you need them.


If it's not painted, Chrome it!!!

I wish it were so easy.. This is a clip that was rivited to the plastic bucket seat. The seat frame goes into it which now keeps your foam attached to the seat.. But Thanks
