340s seat -how is it fastened?

Post by haymaker »

On the original 340s seats how were they fastened? I have seen some used snaps, but the parts book shows some sort of metal strip with rivets. any pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Bryan

OK, so the strip listed in the parts catalog is actually a velcro strip instead of metal, I have the tank cover and see some remnants of the velcro on there. Thanks Bryan
