Default Cabin seating removal for Formula 311

Help!

I have a formula 311 that I need to remove the seating (pads) in the cabin. While interior is dated it is in perfect shape and I do not want to destroy or damages the pads in removal. What is the secret?

Thoughts?

Thanks

Larry

Im not sure if its the same but on my 87 242 in the seam of the seats there are screws that hold them down. I believe i have 2 per seat but you may have more.

Thanks. I must be missing them. I Thought they were in the seam line but I have not been able to find them. Thank you for the tip I look closer.

They are in there. Mine were really hard to find. Phillips head screws, if you lightly drag the screwdriver in the seam you should feel the screw heads.

Keep looking you will find them. Mine were in the seam but through the fabric and hard to find.

Thumbs up

Thanks everyone for the advice. Yes I found them! the screwdriver trick worked because they were buried and under the fabric.

Thanks!
