I'm not sure you'd get a good ground there. Definately remove paint to get a good
connection. All you can do it try. I used the two bolts going into the frame.
One of them is a long "all thread" for lack of a better explaination, that I used
to secure the top of the cover. Here's some pics.













hope this helps,

WKNDS thanks for the pics, I did think of using the 2 front bolts as you did, however using the rear seems to work ok at the moment.

I'm going to try & use the original plastic seat pan but if it doesn't work out I may just go for the same as you with the lower cover & the fls ecm cover.

Already stripped the seat to see what the pan looks like & will dry fit it to see how it looks before cutting it up.

It wouldn't have dawned me to try that. I hope it works out

I agree about the "mountain of plastic"...

I can't wait until I see a pogo seat set up with a cover like I made:
