Fiero Seat Foam Repair | Back |
|
|
1 The Fiero seat has a "Perimeter Frame". There is no support in the center of the seat. Only foam to keep you off of the floor of the car. Sometimes this foam rips. In which case you will be sitting below the frame, this will distort the leather. |
|
2 If the foam has ripped on one side,,, You can be sure it has ripped on the other side too. |
|
3 Here you can see how if the foam has ripped, you will be sitting on the floor. |
|
4 Here: The foam was glued back into place, and leather strips were glued in place, to help transfer your weight to the sides, where the foam is supported by the frame. |
|
5 Leather strips were also added to the bottom, to support the foam. |
|
6 Often the side bolsters will break loose from the frame. Glue them back in place. |
|
7 Often the side bolsters foam will rip and expose the metal frame. Glue the foam back together and repair like the backrests. |
|
8 Glue on the new cushion center foam pads included with your kit. |
|
9 A layer of 'Cotton Padding' should be added to the top of both side wings prior to the leather install. Pad the TOPS only, do not pad the upright sides. |
Once the foam core is properly repaired, and the new upholstery installed, the seat is as good as new. |
