sxs191 I'll let you know how it is when I get it. Shipped today so I should have it by next Wed. The guy at Messicks told me it was a pretty good seat....we'll see.

Got the new seat today and installed it. Been raining and not able to get a trial run on it, but from just sitting on it in the garage, it is a MAJOR improvement over the original seat. :thumbsup:

I have to go to the auto store for some plastic plugs to fill the 6 tapped holes in the metal back like the old one has. I wonder what there for??

They should be for the arm rests - you may want those instead of plugs. What did they charge for the seat with shipping?

Never thought of arm rests. Seems like they'd be more in the way than helpful. I got some plastic plugs from Carquest and filled the holes. Their easy enough to get out, just unscrew them.

I think the total cost was $115 or +/- a couple bucks. What a difference, darn nice seat. Gave the old one to my neighbor...... free for the hauling.

One thing else, I think if I remove the two small springs under the seat, there will be enough weight to keep the seat switch depressed so it won't keep shutting off when I stand up momentarily. I haven't got around to trying that yet.

Thanks for the info - the armrests fold up out of the way when you don't want to use them - other than that they are handy for different situations.

That's pretty slick. I'll have to see if my dealer has any in stock so I can do the touchy ... feely test. Thanks
