And actually so do I especially compared to other vehicles I've driven or
even my daily driver, a '90 T-bird LX.  The seats in my '90 Westy are far
better for long haul driving.  And I think you may have hit the point I'm

Okay, anyone know a good, reliable auto upholstery shop in the NW?  Puget
Sound area? Oregon?
