It looks a little loose in the top section, did that tighten up at all?

Only problem I have found is:-

1) they didn't cut the centre out, so you loose the harness holes. But in looking at the seat, I kind of like it.
2) they dont have a sleeve in the back of the cover, for a metal rod to slip through and pull it right into the base.

We pinned the seat from the outside, and the material pulls in nice and tight..

So next step is to see if I can do that myself, then communicate how to do it in Indonesian
..

Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't realise that because it didn't have the sleeve at the back for the rod to slip through it made the whole top front section loose.

When you said it pulled nice and tight I thought that meant you had fixed it and not that its still loose fitting around the seat.

Yep... Basically there is a square base made out of a metal rod. This goes around the middle of the top section. Right near the edge of where the bucket sides meet the centre of the seat. This then has hooks that tie down the seats material to the metal rods which are built into the foam.

Once attached, the material is stretched and pulled tight.

The back seat is a little different. It has some of these, as well as the border of the cover has about 1mm of plastic. The hooks them go through that, and tie down. So the material does not rip..
