Theres a guy in Phoenix Az. that makes the frames only that are covered with foam pads instead of the original spring cushions. His name is Mark Turrell and his phone no. is 602-315-2551
He makes all three seat frames. The middle seat runs about $500. and the rear seat about $650. Give him a call. I hear he does nice work. Haven't used him yet, but plan to buy a middle seat from him in the near future.
