I am in the process of having the front, middle and rear seats replicated, I do not know shit about BD seats, I have been doing some research online, but have not turned up much, if it's possible, I would like to know:

The differences in the springs, or spring profile used year to year for the 3 seats (front, middle, rear)

The differences in the seat upholstery material for the different models, panel, kombi standard, deluxe

I got a hold of a sample from a BD deluxe, and have been working with a manufacturer here in Bogotá to replicate the seat material, we are almost done with the first samples, I know Duncan Fagg in Portugal already sells material for BDs, but I'd rather control my own supply/environment.

I know no one has to help with this; any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks

We are gathering parts for the first completely new BD now, we are going to try and have it ready for Bad Camberg (hope we make it), it will be a BD 15 window deluxe, double door, RHD, walkthru, with safaris and a Behr scoop
