Seat cover -MADE IN ITALY- Vespa PX old type (1977-1983)

Seat cover for the original seat of the Vespa PX until 1983.

The seat benches of the early Vespa PX models (1977-1983) has as a distinguishing feature a screwed plastic lettering support (above the seat lock). It is also slightly more rounded at the front than the later bench seats of the PX Lusso models. The seat benches are interchangeable on all PX models. So a bench seat from 1977 still fits a PX from the 2016 model year and vice versa.

The bench seat frame is, as in the previous models Rally/Sprint, made of steel with spring core.
The cover is only fixed to the frame with galvanized steel clips.
Therefore, a refurbishment of the seat is no problem even for not so experienced screwdrivers.

The seat cover includes all parts needed for assembly:

• Seat cover

• Pillion holder strap incl. screws

• Spring clips for mounting

• Screws for lettering support

The pillion holder strap is an equipment feature of the Italian vehicles.
In Germany the PX models were already delivered with sizius holder strap made of chromed steel. The seat cover can be combined with either the retaining strap or the handle.

We also recommend replacing the foam molding inserted under the seat cover. Over the years this ages and often dissolves into small crumbs.
Of course, we also carry the foam in our product range (see accessories).

TIP: The seat cover comes with screws for the seat belt with Phillips head. For a true-to-the-original restoration, we naturally also carry the matching original slotted screws (see also tab 'Accessories').
