Did you ever find the missing seat bracket cover? I just found two, one for each side....as they have been unobtainium for years. =D>
Yes. I ordered four. Gave one away. Decent quality!
NLA Parts in Britain. Embarrassingly, they arrived days before the Bus Depot parts ordered on the same day.

I don't understand Bus Depot's business model. I'd certainly use them more if they shipped the same day and told Ron that. But, they don't change their shipping policy so they lose my business. People are too accustomed to Amazon's blazing fast shipping, especially with Prime to want to wait days/weeks for a business to ship parts they say are in stock.
Totally agree, shipping is expensive and too many products don’t have manufacturer / country of origin described.

I order now a lot from cip1.com as they can get parts to me in 2-3 days vs Busdepots week and a half...plus there shipping cost is $$$
