    I think cars should be driven, not kept in garages their whole life. If you want to collect something, collect stamps.

    Just sit in the seat all pull straight down and in and it will hook on the seat frame underneath.

    Long term fix, remove the seat, flip it over, secure the flap to the metal tab that it hooks on with some sheet metal screws, and then reinstall the seat; voila!

    Yeah, that flap can be a bear to put back in place if not familiar with the way it attaches. Mine hung down for about year with a few attempts during the heat and cold. Just finally went for it and it fell in place pretty easy once got the jist of it.

    What Waymon said^^^

    I did the same thing and felt kinda dumb once I figured it out...it really is easy, just not obvious.

    The slot in the white plastic strip snaps into place under the front edge of the seat frame. You have kinda wrap the cover material in the opposite direction of what you might think at first, but it really does go in easily once you get it. No tools required...

    The trick is to pull it down, then kind of roll it under.

    Much easier if you take the seat out.

    Had to do mine 2x's.

    It comes loose because the leather stretches.

    The second time I used pop rivets to secure it.
