Where do you folks get replacement seats?  I was thinking about something
like a hi-back bucket.  Maybe with a swivel base.  Recaro?

What do you folks use??

2 milk crates and a chunk of 3/4" plywood. Stack the crates and use exhaust
clamps to hold the plywood seat-back on. If you want to go "all-out", go to
the dump and find a nice scrap of old shag rug that someone threw away. Cut
it to size and use dry-wall screws to attach it to your new plywood
seat-back. If you see a pillow at the dump grab it too. It works great on
top of the milk crate. It doesn't look very nice but it will wear much
better than the cushy heated leather fancy-schmancy seats that Mike has. ;^)

Hey - I'll bet I could coil some rubber hose inside the crate and connect
it to the heater hose.  Kazam....instant heated toosh!  :-)

How about some cooling lines for those hot summer months? :-)

hmmmm.........surely we can come up with a even faster/better way to heat
that crate!...if we make it good enough and mike might even replace his
electric models. <VBG>
