Using some upholstery glue, I glued the two pieces together
I then decided to move the velcro strip where the seat covers fit in the center. I started by marking the section 4" down from where it used to be
I then used an exacto knife to cut out the section. Once it was cut out, I glued the foam I just cut out into old spot and glued the velco into the new cut out strip. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to take the leather covers into an upholstery shop, but it looks like I will have to get them to make some modifications. I might move the velcro strip a bit up, but have decided yet.
Once I got both sides done, I put them in to see how they fit. I like!!!!
From behind
Now that I had them cut down to where they fit better, I started to make the mounts for them
I welded some modified bolts onto the floor to secure the bottom section
Then for the top section, I welded on some bolts that will go through the rear piece of sheet metal and I will put nuts onto the bolts from inside the trunk
