There must be someone making them, or importing them because I saw another different ebay store with them. It was in Alabama, but I don't see it on there tonight. don't know anything about them, If you buy one, please post a review.
cc found a good link - that looks like a good price on the seat cushions, especially if it comes w/new hardware.
I got a set like that from Regal last spring for my 9U, and looks like what was in that auction, and it was (looked at my invoice) $226 and some change for the back, bottom, and 2 arm rests.... plus freight....

Hi Rodney,
Were you satisfied with the Regal product??
OM,
The seat is OK. The back rest fit on the brackets the way it should, the arm rests seemed too big, and fit in only 2 of the holes, but seem to be attached firmly, and the seat bottom..... it's good, but it didn't want to fit down on the pegs quite right, and took a little work with the file to egg out the holes so it would fit down properly. But now that it's all on, I think its fine. I maybe spent 15 mintues to get everything to fit right. Of course, there's no way for me to tell if it was a problem on my tractor, or if it was manufacturing inconsistencies.... I'm not certain what the 'expensive' seat cushion sets look like, or how they compare to this one, but I'd certainly buy one again. The foam isn't real soft - it's a rather firm foam, which I would expect on a machine like this. So far no seams have come apart and the vinyl seems thick enough. Like I say, I have no basis to compare to the expensive ones, but this one is fine for me. If you want, I can grab a few pics of the cushions???

I just ordered a replacement seat for my D2 from Hahn Tractor Seats, [email protected].
They aren't cheap though.
Anyone had any experience with this outfit?
I have bought many Hahn seats and the are great and are built as close to orig. as you can get, just rec. a few tailseat sets where wood shows he uses brass vent holes and hardwood like orig. Lots of other sources out they if you want Cheap just buy one you get what you pay for CHEAP CHEAP. And John is a big ACMOC suporter unlike the cheap seat guys.
