50/50 backseat. What's it worth?

I had a full cloth seat, and just swapped it to a split leather I got from a
wrecker.  Honestly, I think the cloth seat's slim profile is nicer, and it
weighs half what the leather split one does.   I wish I could have the cloth
seat wrapped in nice new leather like new vws come with.  On a side note,
has anyone drilled and tapped the holes for the middle mount on the split
seat?  The cars that came factory with the split had studs sticking up here,
but mine obviously doesn't.  How hard is it to get a bolt in there?  I
didn't even have time to try, I'll have to wait till my next day off.

        i beleive the seat Josh was referring to was the split rear leather
seat, and i'm pretty sure the leather rears were all split (hmmm, leave that
one alone :)...
        anyway, i don't see much point in going from full cloth rear to a
split cloth rear...I could be missing something though...

          What kind of split rear seat are we talking about here, the
leather or clothones where each rear half folds down separately? I have a
leather one I wasgoing to put up on ebay. I think that the local yards also
have some splitcloth rear seats too, I'd have to check though. If it is the
cloth/vinylones you're referring to, and I can get them, I'll give a good
deal to anylister that wants them (should be $30 or less + shipping from
02721 in MA).LMK and I'll head out and take a look.Chris Z.----- Original
