Cost and fitting new seat to MF6290

[Pilatus]

The seat on my MF6290 is worn out so needs replacing.Do any of you know how much a new seat would approximately cost?
How difficult is it to replace seat and armrest as so many buttons on armrest that must need disconnecting / reconnecting when old seat removed and new seat replaced. Thank you for any info.

I have liked but that is quite a chunk of money.
If the tractor went to auction sale would I get my money back plus a bit more,what ever you say I will not hold you to it.

Is it worth it for your back/health?if you buy a decent seat you can always keep the old 1 and swop it back if you sell

Just bought and fitted a new Grammer air seat to our 6280 this week.
Inclusive of VAT and carriage it cost about £750 from Swann Systems of Leicester.

It comes supplied ready with the bolts and electrical connections for the armrest and buttons. Ours has air suspension and fore and aft glide as well as the usual seat adjustments. Only thing missing is the left and right swivel facility for ploughing etc. but that I think can be transferred from the old seat if you wish.

If you need any more info. let me know and I will dig out invoice etc.

Many thanks for your helpful posts.
I do not use the tractor much but I think I will replace seat, as I like to keep the tractor up together.
