    I bought probably the last NOS seat in the world for my 83 XJ550 Maxim.

    My old seat was glued from a split seam and starting to look crappy. For 2 summers a seller on ebay was asking way too much for a NOS seat. Finally dropped the price 60% so I jumped.

    Vinyl still soft and inner foam still appears strong.

    I considered reupholstery, but this was way cheaper and I want to keep the look the same as the day I rolled it out of the of the dealer.
