I just got my Oregon aero cushions. Will measure them when I get home this afternoon

Here are pics of the cushions. I have a leather hide coming and will have a local upholstery guy cover them and make boots for the sticks n such.

Your seats look real nice John! I’ll use them as a reference for my upholstery guy so he knows where to put the seams.
