Leather Install help

I am in the process of installing my leather and have one small obstacle(other than the sharp-azz edges under the front seats that sliced my finger open). How did you guys install the frony seatback map pockets? My car did not originally come with them and I am trying to visualize putting them on. Any detailed instructions would be greatly appreciated.

they slide up into a small track on top, and then the 4 crappy clips pop into the 4 holes on the back of the seat. when i rewrapped the seats i had issues keeping my map pocket clips on and in the holes, you just have to mess with it.

Thanks sadler-

I have the panels off, I just need some tips as how to attach the map pockets to the fiberboard. I have glued on the new vinyl/leather covering, but don't know what people used to attach the pocket part.(staples or glue?)

Thanks

I used glue and ended up having to re-do it and use staples. It gets too darn hot in Texas!
