For what it's worth, when you try to slide the new seat covers over the foam
back, you'll automatically learn a bunch of new words.  A street rod guy
showed me a great trick, and it works to perfection.
Slide a lawn/garden plastic trash bag over the seat foam, from the bottom
up.  Then the new seatcover will almost fall into place.  You can then reach
under and pull out the trash bag.
