A thorough interior cleaning...

Well, I finally got around to fixing/cleaning all of the stuff on the interior of my truck. I took a little while. I didn't realize how many things needed repairing and cleaning. I have one question though the rear seat upholstry in my crew cab has come loose on the sides of the seat. There are two little white tabs attached to it that wrap underneath the seat and hook onto the metal frame. Does anyone know how to get them reattached?

get you a fat girl to sit in the backseat and compress the foam cushion

Im sorry but I had to say it.

anything to compress the cushion should give you enough slack to reattach the clips, been there done that
