Drivers seat cushion
#1
Good morning.

Can anyone advise on replacing the drivers seat cushion/squab.  Mine is suffering from the usual squashed effect, quite understandably after 130 000 miles.  Amazon have aftermarket cushions, but if I can i'd like to do a proper fix.

Go to scrapyard and look for a decent Passenger seat (very few of them get more than a little use)  and use the swab from that to refurbish your own seat as they are totally interchangeable

Davey, do the cushions vary model to model, or depending on age? Mine isn't quite that bad yet, but noticeably softer than the other 2 in my enterprise. Also, is it easy to take out and switch? This would be handy to know for future reference.

Luke, could not say for certain if the the squabs vary from model to model but I would have thought that all B9 vehicles - Berlingo or Partners - would have a common squab throughout the range.

If you are a member of the  "Citroen Berlingo & Peugeot Partner SG Owners Club"  on Facebook then search for  "replace seat squab"  within the groups search facility and look for a post by David Ralph, dated 16th April 2023 where he gives a detailed description - complete with photo's - of exactly how to preform this task.

Hope this helps

I'm not a social media kid, so may have to try YouTube. . I know the passenger seat in the 3 seat model is different to the driver's, but I'm sure that I could find a 2 seat or 5 seat one. Thanks anyway Davey. I won't be looking for a while.

Hi, did you have any luck sourcing a good squab? Or has anyone else? For context I have no scrap yard available to me that allows people in anymore, it’s for a ‘58 plate berlingo van Thanks

I haven't got any further with my search, as mine really isn't too bad still. I'm intending to go to a scrappy about a couple of things, and if they have a 2 seat, I can always enquire about it for you. Although, I am a good distance from IOW making postage or delivery expensive.

Fair enough. Thanks I appreciate the kind offer, I have asked a couple local private breakers whom are going to go through their stuff this week. Your correct the postage to get stuff here is horrendous and often costs more then items themselves. If I find a good site or anything I’ll let you know ??
