1994 ATX passenger seat

[Sammyp]

I currently own a 1994 ATX with half leather seats. Unfortunately, a female acquaintance burned a hole on the bottom cushion of the passenger seat. I have been unable to locate a seat bottom (cannot even locate a full seat). I have attached a picture of the driver's seat for reference.

Looking for a new/used replacement? You need a part number to search databases for old stock.

I have searched online and it appears that NOS parts are for the most part non-existent (even if I had a part number.) I do not have any idea where to get a part number. That is why I posted this on the forum.
Any assistance in this matter is greatly appreciated

You would have to get a ford dealer parts person to help dig. I would send a message to member Irish Pride and see what he thinks. Click the envelope at the top right, type in his user name -private message is called conversation or something-- and send him a message and maybe a link to this thread so he can see the material. Not sure if he can help or not but he is best resource on here that I can think of.

OE Seat covers are long obsolete. You will have to find a good used replacement. I can get you an original part number next week if you want but I've searched for these before and know for a fact that they are gone. I'm finishing up with my quarantine this week and should be back to work on Monday.

Chad, thanks for the response, a lookup of the part number is not necessary - I am well aware that for the most part, a great majority of the 1st and 2nd gen parts are obsolete and now considered unobtanium. That is why I reached out to the forum looking for a good used bottom cover or if necessary the whole seat. I have owned this car since 1994 and have been trying to maintain it as best as I can. I was invited and showed my car at the Greenwich RADwood show this past October.
Hope you get better soon!

Good luck on the search. there is a facebook group that is also a very good resource. Not sure what the traffic difference there vs here is (never joined facebook, IG or any social myself) but the old stuff owners are a much smaller group these days so cast as wide a net as possible.

 

[Sammyp]

Thanks Luigi, but I too do not do social media, especially facebook. Heck, it took me 10 years after I joined to actually post on this site (I don't believe I even introduced myself - sorry)

Did you try contacting Shosource or SV&HOdan

 

[SV&HOdan]

is that gray or mocha that you need? couldnt tell from the picture...

 

[Sammyp]

Its gray

 

[SV&HOdan]

i will check...looks like you want a mint one, right?

 

[Irish Pride]

BTW, the covers can be swapped driver v passenger with very little modification. If you can't locate a really nice passenger seat/cover then a drivers side can be used. It will be easier to find a clean passenger seat in my opinion though.

[Sammyp]

SV&HOdan - yes a mint or close to mint would be ideal. As you see from my picture, my seats are in otherwise good condition.

Thank you

 

[SV&HOdan]

...could only find a drivers side seat bottom that was
far from mint. I'll keep looking...

 

[Sammyp]

Thank you very much!

Chad, thanks for the info on the seat cover - are the seat lower cushions the same left to right as well?

Chad, thanks for the info on the seat cover - are the seat lower cushions the same left to right as well?

No. Cushions are molded to the seat frames. Right and left specific.

Thanks - doesn't sound like thats easy to replace (e.g. not hel in by hog rings etc)

Does Ford even list a replacement cushion (drivers lower gen 2)?

 

[Irish Pride]

Long obsolete.
