Second row seat back board snap install?

Does anyone know how to install snaps on the 2nd row back seat fold down board? My just wont stay up anymore with the velcro. I would do a search but im on my phone and it's a PITA searching on it and my computer is down at the moment.

Yep- installed snaps on mine about a week ago. I got them at Home Depot- Bostitch brand and came in a pack of 6 if I recall. Pretty easy to do. I completely removed the velcro from the seat back by carefully cutting the stitching then removed all the fuzzies from the flap. Lined everything up and screwed the male end of the snaps to the boards then punched the other end of the snaps to the flap. the punch tool is included with the snaps. I'll try and post a few pics.

Sorry- I got them at Lowes not Home Depot. For $5, it's nice and cheap little upgrade!

I ripped mine out, the board completely. Wish this thread was around 3 years ago.

The boards wouldn't have worked with my seat covers. Nice job, Cb.
