Can you compress/press the springs to allow you to attach the hog rings?
Advance-Design seat frames through at least 1955-1st series were made for use of barrel/c-clips.
On one of my sets of 1954 seats covers, I had to have a local upholsterer sew extra non-seen fabric around the perimeter of the covers. Then hog rings could easily be used. I paid a local upholsterer to install the covers (check a few small shops for quotes).
What types/layers of padding do you intend/plan to use? | | |
