I’ve tried and didn’t get it ….but it seems like it’s the only plausible way. Maybe a hour in direct sunlight will soften it up enough to budge. Hate to be the guy at the factory putting these on a day :j :grinning:

No snap ring, I ended up cutting it off and putting in a zipper on the new one, no amount of heating and pulling was working but I’m sure somehow it was pulled on.

I have done similar, I always roll it on like a condom, stretching, aligning and smoothing as I go.
I found that starting with only about 1 -1.5" turned at the start gives enough of a starting point and allows you to get everything lined up before you start rolling more on.
You have to remove it the same way, the back has to be rolled over, however, if the upholstery has lost all of its stretch it would be difficult to get it going again. Steam helps a lot to soften up old upholster so you can get it going.
