    when things are made in china they are made to the spec of the company ordering - the middle man. china can produce anything you want, at any quality. but if someone orders the cheapest possible product because they are more interested in maximising their profits than providing a decent product, this is what happens. as the saying goes - shit in, shit out. also, are we sure that's the right cover? your last vid with the ill-fitting mgb seat turned out to be the customer ordering the wrong cover. look forward to the custom solution.

    Simple. That’s the bottom cover on the back rest. Still, “kits” and the like are pathetic and you can’t expect them to fit - even if a pro tried to make one without the seat in hand. Just not the way it’s done right. Always learn something from your videos.
