Front Seats Restoration Part 2

These are new foams, they have sat for so long they started to discolour.

The bottom seat is solid foam. The top back foam is hollowed out.

That's how the old seat originally looked.

You do need to reuse the wire from the old seat bottom in the new.

It took some stretching but it's on there.

We still need to poke the holes for the fulcrum pins but after the new covers had a bit of time to stretch and settle down.

It almost looks too nice to use.

Here's some of the seat trim that's been already painted from blue to a metallic palomino and some of the trim has a more brown non-metallic colour as two tone.
