Time to redo the golf cart seats. What’s some good durable material to use? Don’t want to spend all the money on it but want something durable and comfortable. Not my area of expertise so I’m turning to the experts.[emoji6]

You can buy the covers online for cheap. Lots of styles to choose from.

I ordered mine on eBay. Picked my colors and material. They were shipped to me and I installed in a couple of hours while drinking beer.

Raul's Auto Trim in Ontario, CA did mine in marine vinyl, think it was only a couple hundred bucks. They were pretty thrashed i think that included new foam as well.

We did our cart last weekend. Took my wife and I 2 hours, just need a staple gun. We did black with yellow.


^ this...I did my old golf cart with these covers and it came out awesome, I recently just bought a brand new EZGO, paid $600 extra for the "premium" seat covers and I swear they are the exact same quality and look of these.

Find a keyston bro’s near you. They do automotive fabrics, it is probably the same place that a shop will get it from.
You have to have yours custom done because of the added fabric for the bucket style. Unless your good at following the existing pattern

Rainbow custom carts in Corona sublets to a local upholstery shop near them. She does Awesome work! Brad / Sig if your seeing this, post pics of your cart seats. This last kart I built, she did Alcantera in a diamond pattern, with Ostridge panels...… Kick Ass Job work! Cal your cart already has all the foam work done, maybe just get new covers made?? We still talk about when my wife passed you going back home with that cart. Wife called..... "Did you sell our Kart?"

Hope all is well for you Cal, Jen, and Family. Tz.

I like the pic that what posted. I'd do white or a similar color. Heck if it was me I'd make them match my boat colors just for shits and giggles and wrap the cart. Good luck!

Who ever is the Former Buggies Unlimited is where we used to just buy seats already done. Takes just minutes to change out.
Thin plywood, foam and covering is all it is.
Fake tanning spray is deadly on light colored interiors BTW.

Cale,
Just throw a couple of Mexican blankets over the seats and call it good. ;)
How are you and the family doing?

I work down the street from Martinez Interiors in Corona and he whipped up these for my cart. Anybody that does boat interior can fix you up.

That doesn't look like a stock seat.

It’s not stock. No, I’m better off having someone do this for me.

Hey Toby how are you doing? I think the foam is all in good shape just need covering. I’ll look into this place and see if they can help me out. Thanks. Family is all good just grown up. Guess that happens. Hope everything is good with you and your family.

That looks great. If you don’t mind me asking what did it run you?

About $500 -$600 ,I don’t remember. If you order replacement covers from Amazon you’ll be about 375-400 in cost for a front and rear seat with back rests. Plus the the labor to remove the old stuff and install the new covers which are a complete pain in the ass. To me it was money well spent.
