Seats - Favorite vendor & style?

Rep · 09-29-2013, 11:43 AM

We have a Precedent with beige seats (and the cart also has the rear-facing passenger seat). They're new, but we want black seats, and we're considering a carbon fiber look.

eBay has numerous sellers (and some of them are also site sponsors), and most appear to provide quality seat covers.

If you've purchased seat covers, are you pleased? Please share who you purchased them from.

Did you remove the existing vinyl or cover over it? Why? It seems as though the best fit and appearance would be to remove the vinyl and staple over the foam directly onto the wood backing, but perhaps replacement skins would be too large?

Were they the staple-on or zipper type?

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Thank you.

I have bought a few sets from "Uptopar covers" I know several members on here have as well. I am really happy with them. The quality is amazing and the price is really great. I got the staple on kind. I didn't even remove the old covers just took the seat pieces off the cart, stretched over the new covers and stapled away. Took 30 mins at most and wow its like you have a new cart!

I have Lazy Life seats and love them. I went with the more expensive ones they have for comfort, stability and looks. I couldn't be any happier!

Very nice looking. Those seats are cool, but I wonder whether they can create that bucket seat look for a Precedent?

I like your wheels, too. Nice cart.

Meaning he's out of business, out of favor, or just quit posting?

Those Innovation seats are my favorite. If still recommended, that's who I'm calling next week.

If not, hmmm...

if your interested in having a pleated look, up to par does that as well. Crash showed you some solid seats but they do also have pleated. I got mine black with pleated stripe down middle. They can do two colors also which looks cool.
