Re: Question on how to adjust new seat

If they're what I think they are:

They're fastened to the hard underside of the seat at
their tops, and to a screw at their bottoms. The other
end of each spring is attached to a plate inside the seat
and is free to move.

When you sit on the seat, you compress the top of the seat
towards the bottom of the seat, pushing the plate down,
pushing the screws down, and expanding the springs.

They make your seat bouncy.
