Does anyone have some measurements that they could post? I have a new seat cover and the medallions for a '70 Elky, but the old seat cover is a Tijuana type replacement, and I'm not sure where the medallions go. Thanks!

Dave,

I have a Malibu bench that still has the original (well worn) seat cover on it. I will try to get some measurements and pictures tonight if I get a free minute. I have been too busy lately to even look at my car.:(:(

Frustrating, ain't it.

I just looked at my original 1970 front bench seat. If the medallions are like your's they are, loosely termed, long diamond shaped medallions?

If so the center of each back cushion has 4 wide channel tufted sections and the center one is narrower.

The emblem goes in the narrow center one. Measured from the top welt to the center of the emblem is 7 1/2". Let me know if you need measurements of the rear.

See photo :D
