Various tips are available if you put 'Seat Refurbishment' into search on the forums.
This one is in Dutch but as the poster says - good illustrations

You can download comprehensive fitting instructions from the Newton Commercial site:

If you take your time it's not that difficult to do a good job.

If you follow Nedelanse voor Beginners, you can see, what I deem a very good idea of lining the back Frame with pipelagging. Wish now, i had done that. This would probably make for pulling the covers over slightly harder but certainly not impossible.
I found the most problematic Thing was the tying/laying up of the "tags" from the back covers. I have just tied them off at the bottom but it is not very satisfactory.
