    Thought I would share this with you guys

    GM made some seats with a plastic piece sewn across the middle seam of the seat and others they just sewed extra fabric across the middle seam.

    On the ones with the plastic piece it breaks in the middle and the stitching pulls the plastic so it overlaps and pushes up in the pucker shape.


    Broken plastic piece

    Pucker caused by broken plastic

    Extra fabric style seat

    No pucker

    Let's all agree 97-03 GP seats are uncomfy.

    The title of this thread was misleading.

    Usually when I hear seat pucker, it has to do with very fast cars and quickly clinching cheeks.

    I thought the same thing, but now that I'm in here, my best advice to fix 97-03 Seat "Pucker" is......replacing seats with 04+ Seats!!!
