Toma,

I have two possible solutions for you.

Currently my seats are at Sewfine Products in Denver, CO.

They are being completely rebuilt (Upolstery, Foam and a pump up Lumbar
bladder added)

Contact Carol at Sewfine for details and pricing

Yesterday I saw a really nice solution using Recaro Seats at Go Westy in Los
Osos, CA.

Contact Lucas at Go Westy for details and pricing (they are a Recaro dealer)

Subject: Front seat replacements

My '91 vanagon front seats are really uncomfortable and I was wondering if
the Eurovan seats fit in the tracks without modification.  I have put 5,000
miles on the van since April and am thoroughly enjoying my ride except for
those front seats.  They don't seem to have held up really well over the
past 11 years and 108K miles.
Are there any other suggestions?  I have considered having the seats rebuilt
and reupholstered but don't know of a competent auto upholstery company.
Or maybe there are other captain's chairs from other manufacturers that fit
in with an adaptor kit?

Thanks,

Toma
