    new seats

    I have a '90 model 181 and instead of having the seats recovered I would like to put some in with the fold down middle seat. Has anyone put a particular brand of seat in that they could recommend? I don't want to lose my underseat storage and cooler, any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    You can also check LLebroc Industries in Fort Worth, TX. I got my new ones from them.

    Hey Jordi,
    I forgot to ask you what thickness that plywood is that you used on the seat base.

    I may go with the seats from the boat seat store in mine.

    I put the Lebrock's in my 181 and kept the underseat storage with no problems... Great upgrade and update IMO... Here's some pics...

    Fred, I put 1/2" treathed playwood, I take that mesure from the high of the border of my seat understorage and cooler, mines have a border around so basicly I put that plataform to give me a flat surface to put the seats, also the driver seat moves in axes to give you acces to under seat storage...

    I'd stick with Deans if it were me. If anyone would know ANYTHING about building seats for Mt Home Champions it would be Deans.

    Thanks for the help, the seats really look good in the boats. Looks like I will have a winter time project.
