Replaced cabin backrest fabric - DIY - DGM0223 - 12-17-2023
Replaced the vintage 2003 tan plaid fabric with navy blue on our 2900 Coronet cabin backrests. There are 5 screws underneath to remove in order to take off. Once off I cut off the old fabric, kept the old foam on. Bought one waterproof outdoor patio curtain on amazon for $10, cut to size and stapled back on. Install was about 10 minutes each side. I give in an A-. Will see how it holds up.

Looks good. I wish I could think of a better use for that area. Those boards seem to get in the way of potentially useful storage space (e.g., rod holders, etc.).

That looks really nice. I did the same with our 3100 Open, but used black faux leather and just covered up the nave fabric that was there. It came out really nice. I had trouble getting a couple screws back in so it took a little more than 10 min each. maybe 20 mins, lots of sweat and frustration. But I agree it was an easy job and makes a huge difference.
