Thanks to the amazing people on this forum, I was able to redo the seats in my 40. Thanks to all you who've detailed your journeys; I patched info together from all of you and I thought I'd walk you through mine, start to finish.
First off, I bought coral seat covers from @Cruiser Corps and they're terrific. I also bought the foam and hardware from Specter, which worked great. I know others here have described making their own foam; I'm sure that works but both these purchases got me ahead of the game.
Here's the list of stuff from SOR.
I want to say the whole thing was around $1,300-400. NOTE: Before the project, I had one angled 72-73 bench seat and one squared earlier one. Thanks to Jeremiah I was able to pair up the angled ones (I'm tall so my driver's seat needs some clearance behind it) and go with those. The foam and covers are PERFECT.
Here's the before:
Non-original recover at some point. Super clapped-out as my friend liked to say. I had an OME 2" lift put on a couple years ago and was dismayed at how crappy the ride was; with the fixed seats it's way better.
