So....
You want to fit a seat cowl then.
Presumably you have just got one and either it's already
painted, and ready to fit or you've just spent a few hours
painting it and getting a lung full of cellulose and you've
sent ages rubbing it down. Well done on getting this far,
the next bit's a doodle by comparison.

Picture
1 & 2,
First bit then open the rear seat pad, see those two 10mm
headed nut's you need to remove those, while supporting
the seat pad with your other hand, as in Picture
3 above.

Picture
4, Remove seat pad. When
you bought the seat cowl you will possibly, depending
on which make you got, have been supplied with 6 plastic
spacers as in Picture 5 above,
if you did you'll need to use the two thickest together
and tape them temporally to the top of the seat hinge
as in Picture 6 above right.
Otherwise when the cowl is opened it will hit the seat
side panel's and rub all the paint off when in the open
position (not good)
I also found the supplied bolt's a bit too short and bought
some slightly longer ones as they weren't quite going
far enough into the captive riv-nut's in the new seat
cowl and the cowl wobbled about, when opened.

Picture
7,
tighten the new bolt's into the seat cowl carefully, you
don't want to strip the thread at this stage, now do you.
Picture 8 The new seat cowl
in place,
Picture 9 Now doesn't that look better........all
it means is, you'll have no more passengers spoiling your
fun day's out hooning about, and if you do want to take
passengers it's only a 10 minute job to re-fit the rear
seat pad.
