Default Seat repair

I'd like to get my driver's seat repaired. It's sagged to the point of feeling like a bucket seat, emphasis on bucket. Any recommendations?

Reza Aslani (sp?) is good. Last I remember, he's on De La Savane.

Good luck!

PS - depending on how rough the seat is and how common, you may be able to be a good used replacement cheaper and original.

Cheers

I just had a torn leather panel replaced and the bottom foam beefed up at the same time on my driver's seat in my truck. He charged $150 and I was impressed with the results. I am getting used to the firmer cushion and the higher driving position but it is cosmetically great. I am probably sitting at the original height but the foam compressed slowly over 9 years so I didn't notice it. It was enough to be glad I don't wear a helmet in my truck. His work gave me the confidence to show him the 911 when it comes out of hibernation. This weekend is looking promising!

The owner is an older guy named Jacques,at least I think it is Jacques but I am also an older guy so I might have got that wrong. ;-)

Thanks! Yes I am a bit worried about the height with my hemet. There's not all that much clearance already!

Assuming your passenger seat sees a lot less use, try sitting there with your helmet on and see if it fits.

Good place for most repairs. It's a family(Father, son) business and they have been around for a long time. Very creative old guy .
