That would be a good buy. Note they are 2 1/2" (not 4") bolsters.

I think claret was only offered in 1980.

If they are exact reproduction they retail at around $400 so it 's a good deal at that price.

I just liked how he knew nothing about 2" or 4" yet knew enough to measure.

Re: Are these worth $100? (paul67)
It occurred to me that some readers may not know what the bolster is. This is a 4" version. Some seats were 2 1/2".

Re: Are these worth $100? (paul67)
I would have preferred the 4",but at the price i could not pass and since i will be buying new foam, it does not matter.now if i can get a good deal on the foam.
