My new flexsteel captains chairs are here. Worked out a deal with my local dealer (
Tom Stinnett RV Center
) and now have some brandy new leather take outs from another class A to replace my tired old 190,000 seats.
I'll post some installation pics in my blog.

You are welcome to the two coming out...they will need to be re-upholstered but at nice solid Flexsteels. |

Never know, send pics. Once the weather turns here, I'll have my brother, who is into Auto Body send out a few feelers. |

very plush. We just installed our new chairs today, not quite as nice as yours but we got a great deal form Camping World on some discontinued models, that we could'nt pass up |

It's definately one of those "bolt on" upgrades that seem to be so rare on classic....buy it, bolt it in and you're done! Instant gratification. |

They get them from time to time. They have a room inbetween their two showrooms where they keep takeouts. I'm up there a lot so I just keep an eye on that room. I've seen sofas, statellite dishes, dinettes, etc.
I missed out on some really really nice chairs a year ago. They came out of a Monaco Dynasty and had the integrated three point belts. |

I have been looking for some seats with integrated 3 point belts for a number of months and have been unsuccessful. Any suggestions as to where online I can look ? |

"Google" Flexsteel. They usually have a big variety for sale. |

I'll probly be looking for new or new used seats later on this season. The original are less than comfortable... |

Flexsteel do not show a Captain chair with integrated 3 point belt. Chrysler and Ford made some for some of their pickup lines but cheaper quality and 10x the price. Someone mentioned somewhere that Monaco had them but we do not have a supplier of used RV parts of any great amount in eastern Canada. In fact if you mention RV, someone tries to sell you an old fishing boat...  |

I think you're going to have a hard time finding the "three point belt" system. I know you can get seats with just the regular seat belts. |
