Last time I posted in this thread was 7 months ago, and I was still going on about seats back then. Well I finally got around to pulling the passenger seat out of my car - it's been giving me issues. The back likes to collapse, and the forward/rearward adjustment won't lock into place. Makes for an interesting ride for my wife.
Me being me, I then pulled the entire seat apart. Couldn't help myself lol. I'm pretty confident I could fix the adjusters if I wanted to...but holy crap is this thing gross guys. I dunno if it's the foam breaking down, or the wires and frame rusting, or the skin or dirt trapped in it, but there's SO MUCH red/brown dirt inside of this thing. Most of the hog rings disintegrated when I touched them, and the wire base is also falling apart.
I'll probably still waste my time trying to restore this seat, but now I'm also very much in the market for a pair of seats. I'm open to ideas.
Oh also, I've put 180 miles on the car now since the rebuild. Few hundred more and I can finally open her up all the way
