Default Seat Kits at RPT Austin

RPT Austin is now selling and installing the seat kits for all C6 Corvettes. We have installed several and I even have the kit in my C6. After witnessing the poor support in the seat bottom, these kit eliminate lower seat cushion failure and provide much better support and fatigue.

The kit comes complete with specific foam, nylon fabric, jute pad, zip ties and instructions. The sweat frame eventually cuts into the factory foam and destroys the outer seat skin. The kits firms the seat bottom and provides the required support across many years.

The kits are $39.99 on our website and if installation is needed, that is $150.00 tax included.

This kits really helps the support in the seat. I had mine installed at RPT and felt the support right away. I recommend it to all C6 corvette owners. It is well worth the money to have this done to your seat. GM should have done a better job on our seats.

Had this done to my C5 before I sold it. I was so impressed that I had it done to my C6 as soon as I got it.

Received plenty more and these have been a big seller. Installation takes about 45 minutes and makes a world of difference.
