Beautifully made. I cut down the backrest in the middle seat to use the 28 inch backrest cushion and it worked out well.

Store owner replied: This turned out beautifully!
Arrived exactly as described. I did decide to screw through the top of the seat thwart into the bracket because there is not room under the seat to screw up into the seat from the underside. If not using cushions I could see this could possibly cause issues.

Store owner replied: Hi Scott. Thanks for the review! This is a good note for others to keep in mind. One clamp and the seat have to be removed in order to drill from the bottom. Looks great though!
Easy to install.

It took me about 2 hours time to remove the seat attach the back and reinstall the seat. Now I have to redo the seat bottom to match the seat back. Very nice finish job on the seat back.

I love the look of the seat back. The only thing I would change is for boats with side hand rails I would narrow the back 1 inch to give more clearance I have a quarter inch on each side. Love the seat. Brad Strand

The parts were very well packaged. There were only a couple of "runs" in the varnish but they were very minor and hardly noticeable. Cutting the holes for the electronic panel and steering wheel were a little challenging since the helm was assembled. I made a plywood template from my old helm which made cutting the new holes easier and accurate. Overall I'm very happy I bought the new interior instead of trying to strip the varnish off the original interior. I would recommend buying buying new vs stripping old if ur old finish is difficult to remove.
