Rear seat lower cushion - made in Canada

Seeing "Made in Canada" with a production date of 1992 on the rear seat lower made me happy. MetroMPG, here's a shout-out to you!

For those of you restoring your Geos, please note that the 5 door and 3 door rear seat lowers are different. The 5 doors have 45 deg corners on the seat front, probably for clearance on ingress (they didn't stretch the floorpan THAT much). The 3 doors run straight across to a 90. Putting the 5 door seat in a three door leaves exposed floorpan and electrical -- the carpet doesn't go back far enough. I am hoping that this seat lower comes clean, as it's the same interior as my car, and hey, Johnny said he doesn't want it. I'll take pics when I do a base swap.
