A nice air ride seat makes all the difference!

Find a recycling place. Not a junk yard. The seat is basically worthless to them. When all is said and done it is worth about $20.00 scrap.

Yes it does. And my wife (copilot) will get the original seat from the driver's side. I haven't decided if I am going to just set it back a little from the entrance, or make some sort of trap door that covers the steps.

I want a REAL seat, complete with arm rests. The local Freightshaker dealer has a few within my $$ range.

Mine came with one, but the Bostrom I scored at a yard sale for a hundo is way nicer.
Pretty much any decent air seat from a semi is nicer than the bus grade stuff.

This is made by recaro, and was in a city bus that was going to scrap.

LMAO. So fancy it was free!
It is in pretty good shape. Looks a lot younger than the bus it came out of.
