: Happy-Butt seat swap

Just an idea to throw out there if you are like me, suffering with worn driver's seat and not ready to spend the dough on a new foam and cover job just yet.

I swapped the much less worn passenger side seat for the driver's. Just remove the seats, unbolt the rails off each and swap them. Yes, your seat tilt lock will be on the inside but no one will notice and your butt will thank you!:hurray:
It's only temporary anyway! The wife might gripe a little but she thinks the car rides too rough anyway...:sad:

ps. See Dale's sticky post on how to clean up those seat rails while you are at it.:thumbsup:

Could also help accelerate the funding of the seat recovering project when the wife realizes how worn the seat is!

Take a ride with her some time and just casually ask her "Do these seats seem more uncomfortable to you? They are getting pretty worn out. Whatta you think hon?"

The best way I found to "convince the wife its okay," is to drop the top and let her drive now and them.

This goes hand in hand with the "This ole thing, pshhhh it's been in the closet forever catching dust" explanation that the wives tend to offer up.
