*Hi Fred,
  No there is no cardboard backing on the rear of the seat, but YES 
there is a latch to keep the back of the seat from flying forward. It is 
located on the left side of the seat frame.

The new seat cover will cover the back but when I dismantle the old, the sheet aluminum comes off and is obviously not stock.  The back of the seat is framed but do I put something like Masonite or cardboard across the back prior to recover or just slip on seat cover over the seat wide frame?
