    96 209 TE DC bucket seats?

    I know it's an old question,but has anyone found buckets that work?
    The seating cockpit is strange shape. Also getting ready to tackle a carpet job with Syntec 24oz platium II


    thanks

    Sell the boat NOW! If you don't you'll be wishing you had about half way thru.ha!
    I looked into changing my seat to two buckets and a step. I would have had to build a pan and carpet the back I elected just to go have the seat redone by Mary K

    I just redid a seat for a 209...reupholstered the entire back but did the bottom in 2 seats. I left a space in the middle for a box/step.
