[QUOTE="silentbravo, post: 483139, member: 29669"] What you were looking for is called a "T-nut" very commonly used in upholstery. They attach from the backside of the wood, so they can't pull through, and then you thread your fastener in from the frontside. Pretty much all boat seats (or any small upholstered small seats) with a wood base use these. That would probably be the easiest way, then you don't have t match factory holes or drill new holes in the aluminum (other than how you are attaching the new material to the original seat?). You would just be fastening the seat to the board to the seat base. [/QUOTE]
