| The real key is to use the old parts to locate the holes for the screw that hold these together. Transfer the hardware and start removing the old vinyl. You need to at least salvage the old foam. It can be filled using new foam if chunks are missing. This is rarely the case (more of a seat thing). If you need to deal with some degradation on the passenger and drivers top foam section some silicone can be built up or we can sell you some thin foam sheet. Again, not usually the case. Note: there are cardboard strips that you can harvest off the old vinyl once the foam is removed. | The real key is to use the old parts to locate the holes for the screw that hold these together.
