Vt Series 1 Driver Seat right bolster collapsed

[schrinky]

Hi guys and gals,

just wondering if any of you have had this problem, I am large guy and sit in the center of the seat but still always sit towards the outside of the car due to the fact that the accelerator is on that side! just wondering if any one can help me out, i have searched the forum and cannot seem to find anything along these lines. thinking that i might have to get the bolster redone and maybe have it done in a harder material due to my size! or should i just spend the money and buy a new set of seats?

Thanks

I think its a common problem with the seats. All depends on how you get into your car I guess, can't be helped. Are you planning on keeping the car long? If so just leave it as is, get it done when the time comes to upgrade your car. Waist of time and money getting it done now if you ask me...

thanks ray, im probably going to have it for another 3-4 years, until im off my p's! just leave it then, now i know that it is a common problem, im not the only one out there!

Mine is also gone in the ss. I was quoted $150 to fix mine which i think is worth doing.

was that just to have the bolster redone or the whole seat?? not bad for the whole seat but just the bolster, i would rather spend my money on a new stereo!

id say thats just the bolster. thats an average price. im getting mine fixed next week and its bigger than the bolsters on your seat, and leather. im expecting to pay 150-180
