I have a bunch of seats that are not pretty (and would need to be reupholstered) since I hate throwing stuff away I’m trying to determine if they have any value???[quote]

They do; some people like to take the stock seat and modify the seat frame to add a bit of bolster to the top and bottom and then recover them. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Shipping is expensive so they are hard to sell but I try to give them away when needed rather than toss them in the can.

I have sold them in past. Use a box from U-haul. Shipping is expensive.

if you could find a good upholsterer, you could recover them all as there is quite a market these days for factory match recovered seats
