John, check to see if the seats have ribbons instead of buttons.There may be 2 which are fitted at each corner. If so, then you should have no problem.

Ronnie is correct, none are fixed they have buttons or ribbon type cords and do fit. When you install the backrest make sure the ribbon cords are resting on the seat base where you can see them. When the backrest is set in the upright position tuck the cords in. Oh and check to make sure the release mechanisms work ok first

Don't worry Pops,yours will be just fine It's just that some seat backs have buttons for folding,& others have ribbons.
