Steve, I just checked mine and I have a half inch lip all around that makes
full contact with the bulkhead all the way around and is hinged on the bottom
for access. The weight of the seatback cushion holds it in place. I,ve rolled
it many times and it has never moved. If I had a digital camera I could take
a photo of it for you. It,s on my list.
