Driver's seat wearing out

Hi
Does anyone have a suggestion for ripped seats?
Should I look for a place that fixes them or are new
ones better?
Fred
94 SC2
cloth buckets.

I would just get seat covers. New or repaired seats can be much more
expensive, however if it is so bad that the springs are poking thru, then
you have no choice. AutoExpressions makes some good seat covers.

Re: Driver's seat wearing out

I picked up a very inexpensive beauty at a salvage yard. I found
one with very little wear and tear, where I believe a tiny teeny
gal totaled her car and who couldn't have weighed much as
compared to me & my fat butt. I hope she/they were OK from the
accident. In fact, going through that salvage yard really
bothered me. I started thinking about how many people must have
gotten seriously hurt to produce so many wrecks in that salvage
yard. Really bothered me. Anyway, for me it was way cheaper to
get one there as replacement material/cloth alone was a lot more
expensive that what I paid at the junk yard. Think I paid 25
bucks or so.

Hmmm... I usually think 'damn these were nice cars at one time'.

quite the contrary, I think "Imagine how many of these Saturns gave their
lives to save their occupants."

Re: Driver's seat wearing out

Shark,

You did good on the salvage yard seat!

I've had the same thoughts when I pulled parts from a local U-Pull-It yard
myself. The wrecks with the deployed air bags and shattered front
windshields, but with blood stains on the front dash, steering column, and
seats bothered me the most. I recall wondering if the driver was wearing
their seat belts and how badly they were injured.

I think every 16-year old should be required to walk through a junk yard to
see some of these wrecks BEFORE they are given their licenses.

Bob

Re: Driver's seat wearing out

reason to preserve his
life, rather than risk it for infinite gain, as likely to happen as the loss
of nothingness.

For it is no use to say it is uncertain if we will gain, and it is certain
that we risk, and that the infinite distance between the certainly of what
is staked and the uncertainty of what will be gained, equals the finite good
which is certainly staked against the uncertain infinite. It is not so, as
every player stakes a certainty to gain an uncertainty, and yet he stakes a
finite certainty to gain a finite uncertainty, without transgressing against
reason. There is not an infinite distance between the certainty staked and
the uncertainty of the gain; that is untrue. In truth, there is an infinity
between the certainty of gain and the certainty of loss. But the uncertainty
of the gain is proportioned to the certainty of the stake according to the
proportion of the chances of gain and loss. Hence it comes that, if there
are as many risks on one side as on the other, the course is to play even;
and then the certainty of the stake is equal to the uncertainty of the gain,
so far is it from fact that there is an infinite distance between them. And
so our proposition is of infinite force, when there is the finite to stake
in a game where there are equal risks
