Title: Front Seat Spacers Post by: KFH on April 04, 2009, 10:46:21 PM The four plastic? seat spacers under the front seat are not in the best of condition. Are new ones available or what is the preferred method of replacing them?

Cheers, Azz. Title: Re: Front Seat Spacers Post by: zulu on April 04, 2009, 11:16:40 PM I have seen them cut out in plywood (presumably with a jigsaw) & primed with what looked like etch primer, not sure if they were the forerunner to the plastic, or if they replaced some brocken plastic units.
Don't know of anyone that repros them though. Gary Title: Re: Front Seat Spacers Post by: mcl1959 on April 04, 2009, 11:19:26 PM The early FE ones were made of plywood, then changed to plastic - just sold my last set.
I have 1 front one left. Ken Title: Re: Front Seat Spacers Post by: Paul In Ireland on April 05, 2009, 12:28:30 AM Chopping board sounds like a keeper for plastic replacement parts....especially since they come in about 10 or more colours :)
Wife will be wondering - where is that red chopping board?? ;D Title: Re: Front Seat Spacers Post by: RET on April 05, 2009, 03:55:36 PM Wife will be wondering - where is that red chopping board?? ;D Or at the very least, "This chopping board seems unusually short...?"
