All,
Finally got to dis-assembled, remove vinyl, from my front seats. The first time I dis-assembled the seats, I found the small cracks. I inserted small metal strips and welded. The round, I find the cracks showed up again and in other spots. This time, I purchased some 18 ga. sheet metal and I am going to fabricate a wrap around plate on the outside to provide more strength. I highly recmmend to inspect your seat frames before installing your new upholstery!
Keep you posted.
