Healey Friends,
I'm restoring a BJ7 from scratch. I've never restored a Healey before, so,
when I got to the upholstery (Moss), I bought the Moss
Upholstery/Carpet/Panel video tapes. Very helpful, but they leave some
unanswered questions:
        1. There are seperate part numbers for "L/H" and "R/H" driver/passenger
seat backs. I cannot discern any difference in the two I have. How do you
determine which is which? (No problem figuring out the rest of the set.)
        2. Once I've finished the seat bottom/ and have to set it into the 
frame,
there are 3 tabs on the back of the frame for holding the back of the seat
pan (bottom), but how is the front of the seat pan attached to the frame?
There are cutouts in the bottom of the seat bottom to allow room for the
nuts/bolts on the sliders, but I can find no other apparent way of attaching
the seat front to the frame. Neither the tapes nor the Moss Catalog provide
any clues.

Thanks in advance for any insight or other upholstery advise you may have.

Regards,
Ron Huseman
