As the title suggests, any guidance would be welcome to this new owner. It looks like these are hog-ringed to the seat frame. Is there a generally accepted way to get these off and into a washing machine? Maybe I need hog ring pliers to get them back on after I cut the rings? Is that what people are doing? Or should I just steam clean in place, or pull the furniture out and steam clean outside?

Also, during our 2000 mile recovery trip we discovered that the pull out dinette and rear side facing settee's are not comfortable. Major bar across the back issues. Any guidance on new foam or foam upgrades, suggestions? We have a good foam place nearby, I can get pretty much anything from them, cut to size.
