[QUOTE="davidd, post: 109092, member: 1177"] I did not take dimensions when I did this seat, but the photos should be of some use. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Stock Seat 1.jpg"]28471[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Stock Seat 2.jpg"]28472[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Stock Seat 3.jpg"]28473[/ATTACH] You may notice in the full seat base photos that four of the nuts are painted black. They are SS nuts tacked on to the angle. I did this for the four nuts that accept the bolts for the tool box mount. It seemed to me that you did not want these nuts floating free inside the seat as the might not line up easily if you remount or change the toolbox. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Stock Seat 6.jpg"]28474[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Stock Seat 9.jpg"]28475[/ATTACH] I make sure the foam sits flat because it makes it easier to cover. This seat is still in service after 20 years, so there have been no issues. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Seat Cover 2.jpg"]28476[/ATTACH] The "Feridax" was often painted on, but the medallion goes in the same place. The original "pebble" style of vinyl is difficult to find.
