John,

There is a mounting plate that bolts (4 bolts) to the bottom of the seat. The back rest slides into that and it has a spring latch that you pull to allow you to remove the backrest.

John,
It sounds as if it falls into the "Easy-Peasey" category... :D

Good Luck with the Elkas; we're waiting for your "Report From The Saddle". :thumbup:

Very easy :ohyea:

The sad part is the back rest between the stock and comfort seat are the same only the mounting plates are different. If BRP would sell the mounting plates you could change between the seats, but no dice so when I sold the comfort seat I had to also sell the backrest:banghead:

Yep! on the mounting questions. Also works with the Utopia backrest.

A lot of us complained that they had different backrests for different seats.
