There's a 'How To' for refurbing the fronts: http://www.vwgolfmk1.org.uk/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=59405

rears are similar but just take the bench and the back apart with the two screws/bolts where the seat hinges then the covers sort of clip round the frame then hook into the metal wires in the foam like the fronts, should be able to work it out fairly easily if you haven't done so already, but hope that helps
