i just recently got my clubby some better low back clubman seats but they came with out the pins that hold the base to the back. so i will have to salvage the ones.

Well the ones I have stripped down have been no problem as the pin has had a circlip on the inside and once removed ,the rest is a piece of cake. IF you have to cut the pins, then I may still have a few with clips lying around if you end up needing some.
