seat springs

where can the side support springs for a 71 full foam seat be ordered? I've
watched some videos about rebuilding the seats but can't seem to find any
of them now. thanks

Re: seat springs

They are available.
Maybe Grumpy will see this and chime in.
There are clips that clamp the springs also.
Here is a link to what I found.

Re: seat springs

Any Auto Upholstery shop can make springs for you also if you want to buy them locally.

Re: seat springs

I bought ebay springs and bent them myself, holding up well but definitely do not look like the originals.
