I have the original bungee cord set-up in my 57 T1. I'll shoot some pics for you.

A little blast from the past finally finding this reference to the T1A

I understood the T1A had bungee on both sides of the seat back? Is that not the case?

many thanks

Have not seen both sides, but I suppose anything is possible.

Thanks Brad ... I saw another parts related photo that showed 2 "rubber straps" in the 1957 may parts book while the 55 and then the 58 showed only 1 hence the confusion .. will try to find it again but glad to see your last line is clear - only 1 per car
