Default need some recommendations on a seat problem....
I have a spring that's eventually going to poke through my seat so I want to get in there and fix it or cut it off. Is it possible to pull the seat cover off or do I need to take this somewhere to have a "professional" do it? any ideas would be appreciated. tia

You can do it yourself - just take out the seat and patiently start disassembling it!

Put it on eBay - I know some folk would pay good money for that "feature"!

Does that Tech Article apply to our seats too? I thought you had to stitch?
