Vmax 4, & vmax 500/600 seat comparison

sure, no problem..I think the 1996 seats, are only a little over 1 inch higher...but the way they feel, it`s almost as if they used some kind of different pading? or added a softer layer on top of the old version? tomaro i`ll be uncovering the sleds, so as to move them and i`ll try to measure for sure the hieght difference...

as far as telling them apart..here ya go..

the most obvious dfferences I think..would be where the side stitching is..on the 96 & 97 vmax4..the stichting angles in towards the front, then slightly back out towards the front area of the seat...
also, another give away, is the back of the seat (where you set) the 1996 seat does`nt raise as much as the earlier seats...hard to explain, but here`s a couple pics comparing the 1995 vmax 4 seat, to the 1996 vmax 4 seat..(only difference on the 1996 NON vmax 4 seat, other words, the 1996/95 vmax 500/600`s..is the 1996 vmax 500/600`s, have no pattern on the area where you actually set..also, the 1996 vmax 500/600`s, have no tool box in the trunk..no rubber strap either..unlike the vmax 4, the tool boxes were never in the trunks, as far as i know)

The stichting difference...about 14 inches on the 1995 seat.. 1996 seat is about 10.5 inches)..
