Replacement seats for Sprinter

We have a Class C on a 2016 Sprinter chassis. Unfortunately the RV company ripped off the OEM seat covers and covered them with the infamous peeling vinyl upholstery.

After receiving several rather pricey quotes to re-upholster, we have decide to look at new seats.

Looking for a recommendation for after market seats.

I have searched the internet and know most of the suppliers, I'm looking for people with first hand experience, both good and bad. I'll also be posting over at the Sprinter site.

Thanks

Many years ago, I worked for National Seating. They made pneumatic suspension seats for big rigs. Looking online, it appears they still might but I came across a supplier who shows a seat that is hand pumped and offers something you might want to look into as an alternate.

Thanks for the link.

The Sprinter seats have an occupant sensor for airbag deployment. I don't how you would drive it without being in the drivers seat.

I need to see if the after market units have that or, more likely a bypass method to show the seat always occupied. No airbags in the seat, so that makes it easier.
