Ideas on how to get this build sheet out of my 68 Galaxie bench seat without removing the seat?

I know this isn’t mopar related but I have a new to me 68 Galaxie. Managed to buy it from the original owner who had the window sticker still. Figured I’d take a look for the build sheet and there it is untouched. It is super fragile. Ripped with me just touching it. Is there anyway to get it out without removing the seat? The stupid square nuts holding the bench seat down are giving me all sorts of trouble.

Thought maybe I’d shove a couple short pieces of 2x1 wood strips in there on the sides of the springs? Or maybe use a few clamps/hooks? Just wanted to see if there is something obvious I’m missing.

Take pictures of it in case it does fall apart. Maybe lightly spray it with clear paint to help hold it together. You dont want it to stick to the seat springs or the burlap. And i would remove the seat. Good luck.

I'm faced with the same dilemma...and my seat IS removed. The broadcast sheet is embedded and stuck to the seat springs.

Try pulling the springs away from the sheet.
Put something as a spacer between the spring and the burlap a few inches away from the build sheet to take the pressure off of the paper.
Better to remove the seat. They come out easily.

Short answer, remove the seat
