I have a couple seat post inserts on my 2020 520c that need replacing. I purchased the kit/insert Springfield recommended for this task (Bushing repair kit #2100040). When looking at the insert on the boat, the carpet covers the insert right up to the seat post. Pulling the bad insert will probably destroy the insert and come out of the smaller opening of the carpet, but installing the new one looks like I will need to trim the carpet or cut a couple small slices to fit the insert and then reglue over the insert.
Others that have replaced these, what did you do with the carpet above the insert?
Thanks,
