I put up a post on 4/1, about removing the front seat back cushion in my 47 60S. I'm unable to simply lift it up & out as easily as the rear one did. The Fisher body manual that I have says to bend the tabs down at the bottom of the cushion, but I don't see or feel any when I reach up under it. I've tried to attack it from the back,  but I can't get the back panel off because I can't get the robe cord end brackets off. I removed a Phillips head screw from the underside, but that didn't help.There is a bolt or screw holding it on, probably accessable under the cord?  There are some photos on my earlier post.  I don't know how I can continue.  I am trying to be as careful as possible removing these interior fabric pieces for patterns.  Thanks, Bob.

On my 47 I pulled out the front seat bottom cushion then it was very easy to pull up the back cushion releasing it from the hooks. Here is a picture.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you need anything else.
