If you go and hunt down the "How It's Made" U-Tube video on how the Superformance Cobra Replica is made, there is a nice 2 min segment on seat assembly. Or you can send me your email offline and I'll send some screen shots of the seats. Don't confuse the GT40 video with the Cobra video for seat construction information. I'll keep the photos handy. BTW: There were a few seat designs, early design had easily removable bottom cushions.
From the video, it appears the front of the seat cushion is attached with permanent wire clips, and the rear of the cushion just stays in place due to the proximity of the back and side seat surfaces. Not that we can be sure that additional info was excluded from the video. Would be easy to have added additional wire clips on back side of seat cushion to webbing under seat to keep it in place.

Clayboy, could you send or post photos of the bottoms of your seats IF you have sliders on both sides. Questions always arise regarding if the sliders are interchangeable between driver and passenger seats.
