    I have no problem with the theory that all men are created equal.
    But after that moment you are on your own and nobody owes you a damn thing.

    I should have known to ask the one who floated me the idea to begin with Now to find correct material, and color choices offered, care to take a shot at that

    Is the hounds tooth the name for the seat back position system? My passenger side detents were worn, and would pop free on quicker accelerations. Is that the hardware you are talking about and can it be replaced?

    Houndstooth refers to the pepita cloth inserts used to upholster the center panels of the front seats.

    Houndstooth cloth inserts

    NV Stig:

    Sorry, here is a photo that should illustrate what is being referred to by hounds tooth cloth inserts on a Sport Seat.

    This particular car has a '69-'71 Sport Seat on the driver side.

    On the passesnger side there is a factory Comfort Seat, also with hounds tooth cloth inserts.
