Replacement Lovers' seat

Hello,

I am looking for a couple of seat cushions in original moquette for the Lovers' seat corner on the upper deck.

If anyone can help or has enough material to reupholster these two squabs, I'd be grateful if they could let me know.

Many thanks

Annesley

Re: Replacement Lovers' seat

The rear N/S squab is a different size to that which fits the seat frames. It has no backing. Cushion is wider I think than the standard, so not easy to find replacements.

If you have the old boards and/or foam you can get them re-upholstered.

Re: Replacement Lovers' seat

I may have a seat back but no cushion. It will need rebuilding though.

Re: Replacement Lovers' seat

I have the rear seat back with DMS blue moquette. It may provide you with a good board for rebuilding if that's any help.

Re: Replacement Lovers' seat

Thank you but I have already got SEC to rebuild the seat back - otherwise that would have been ideal.
