The seat back however has 8 pleats per panel at 2.125 the other two outer ones are 1.862

Also the center panel in the seat back is 8 3/8 inches while the seat bottom is 8 1/2 inches. So the run lost just about an inch when you get to the drivers side . I’m just going to have to live with it since even my upholstery guy said he can’t match the color . PUI doesn’t even offer it anymore
Wow, hopefully that's not an SMS, where I've had one on order 8 months

Installed my 3rd radiator. First two from different manufacturers are junk. So I "settled" for a US Radiator. It's built very well and everything fits like it's supposed to. Pending time there's absolutely no substitute for those desiring an original replacement, IMO. Downside it costs $1100 shipped.
