Your question may have been intended for Dan--no I have no rubbing. Here's a pic of the underside edge of the triangle piece. It appears to held in place by just one screw.

As you can see in the first pic, the black mask has been cut away on the right inside of the back window so one can peek through the grille.


From the outside you can seen that the grille is not solid.


The mask remains on the left inside of the back window.


and, the left side grille is almost solid.

more pictures i love them. right on Richard!!!! you all need more PICTURES of your cars here. 'SUP??
waohhh....Mike! even i have 2 slats in my Drivers side...dun..dun....daaaa. sorry.



also, seems Holmes has a more modifiyed version....notice the wave in his slats...looks to me, to be P.O. home-done. no offense Rich, but i am thinking about drilling out the passenger side where my "Wood" is and i feel this is what they will look like. all wavey. and the round at top
i want more of the angle of the slats, not so straight in.. i do however still like the silver on the edges. goes with my rims.

ohhhh....yeah, that seat plug is for the headrest speakers. they are in there just no hook up. huh.....wonder if i could rig them up for some more BASS! ....."how low can you go!" cept i cannot find this reflected on the RPO sheet. i need to look into this more.

That's because they are 84 85 seats. Someone has replaced them/recovered them at sometime.
If you don't have speaker holes in your seatbacks, I would leave them disconnected, those small speakers can build up heat. I have seen many seatbacks that had burned with them. Not saying it's a problem, I'm just saying. . . . . .

thats why..huh? how would the 1986 proto, Mera #7005 and me all have the same covers? thanks Indy!
must see if they have speakers in theirs. so cool. another mystery.....seems rather odd....just Meras?
i have some pics of Ferrari 308 seats of similar design.
i wonder......later
