You're asking about LATE (72-3) seats, right? While there may be something 
that works here, ours can always be rebuilt, unless the springs are broken.

I've always thought that the shape and fit of the type 3 seats was excellent, 
but the quality of construction of the 72-3 seats was pretty awful. I had to 
take the best of 4 seats to make 2 good cores for my 73. Then I had to 
completely replace the pads and covers. Once done, however, they are very 
nice.
