Porter (at least) has detailed instructions, some seat kits also come with
their own. However the three sources I checked before embarking on my
recovering failed to mention that the seat cushions and covers (on my 73 at
least) are handed - the side nearest the tunnel tapers off towards the front
whereas the side nearest the door is parallel. I used aerosol adhesive -
easy to apply and has worked well.
