2003 - 2021 Chevrolet Express Van 2500 Driver Side Bottom Replacement Cushion - Bucket Seat Style - Replaces OEM Part # 88979479

Fit really well easy to install and I’m now sitting 2 inches higher than what I used to be

Perfect match, great result

I replaced the bottom cushion, top and bottom cover (medium dark pewter cloth), and armrest cover on our 2012 Express cargo van using The Seat Shop. Removal and disassembly of the seat was easy with the help of their how-to video. Removing the armrest from the seat back was a little more complicated, but is easily accomplished by working the top cover up the seat back to give access to the c clip retainer. Once I had the seat disassembled, reassembly using the new cushion was much easier than I expected. Upholstery work definitely requires a little more finesse than other vehicle repairs, but patience is key. Both seat covers require velcro strips to line up with the cushion -- the factory velcro is glued to the foam, which degrades over time. I had to super glue most of the velcro back onto the foam before reassembly, which wasn't expected but also wasn't complicated. The super glue bond was adequate for realigning the covers and achieving a professional result. The new bottom cushion is so comfortable, it makes the entire process worth it. I would not recommend replacing the covers without also replacing the cushion -- trust me, if your cover is worn out, the cushion is too. We sit much higher in the new seat with new foam. 10/10, wish I could include a photo because the end result looked like it was from the GM factory. We will do this on the rest of our fleet as the seats wear out.
