I'd shoot GW Cust Service a note via the web link. I'm sure they can assist.

Seat cushions themselves snap onto the lids of the bow storage areas. Backrests may be part of the bolsters, if that is what is giving you difficulty.

Usually there is a small phillips screw on the bottom side of the cushion that can be accessed inside the grommet that are in the phifertex mesh material that is on the backside and bottom side of cushion. Once you get these out push up as there are large J hooks mounted to the glass that slide up/down in holes on the backside of the cushion.

Does anyone know how much it is to get the fill in spacer and cushions for the bow area?
