Bucket Seat Interior question
Hello Olds Fans, I am helping a friend restore his black 69 Olds 442 seats. We need to obtain new a pair of seat backs-(plastic-part) and the 2 smaller plastic parts on the bottom of the seats with the chrome trim. I see several Vendors have them for sale. Anyone that has some good service and excellant product from a vendor I would appreciate knowing who that is. As well on a side note are there any issue's with these or are they a quality reproduction part?. Thanks everyone for your help.

As far as the chrome trim, I got mine from Ames Performance (Pontiac), same seats.
I think it was someone here some years ago that said they had the correct trim, and they do.
They have 2 different trims, ask for the correct, as the other is just generic like other vendors sell

Every repro house sells generic door edge molding in rolls and calls it bucket seat trim. Few vendors sell the correct molded trim that matches OEM. I just went through this with the trim for my 67 buckets (which is different from the 68-72 trim also). I ended up getting mine from Muscle Car Central.
