Get some round bars at the hardware store. It cost me $12. Starting with the seat back, you need to add one vertical bar and 3 "S" shaped horizontal bars on each side and then cut off the old bars to make room for the larger wheel well. Place the vertical bar in the depression of the existing springs. Make sure you put wet towels down before you weld. The old padding burns very easily. The seat bottom is more of a challenge. There is one wire that needs 3 clips undone. The wire needs to be bent with vise grips and then re attach the 3 clips in the new position. I found my welding pliers worked the best on opening these clips. Cut the two wiggly springs after you have re attached the wire. Add 2 bars and then cut off the corner of the frame.
