Your old ones look a hell of a sight better than my old ones! I think it's time for some new ones too!
Maybe I'll get some new seats while I am in Az! :rollside:

Man, that is looking good Michael. Did he reuse your old frames and foam? I'm curious because that's exactly what I need to have done. Just getting some cracks in the vinyl and will need to replace it all before it gets too bad. Probably have to wait til next year though.

LOL I guess I'm doing it backwards... I had rotten seat frames... so I pulled the covers very carefully, built new frames (just as ghetto as the previous set), and pulled the foam and vinyl back over them. Looks like crap (the vinyl needs to be replaced too) but at least I'll be on the water next month :)
Nice seats 396.

He sure can;) He is backed up with 3 boats at the moment so it will be a few weeks. How soon do you need them done? How many seats need to be done?
