This is the most sought after part for a Mooney and I'm surprised they haven't been sold yet.

What about them makes them sought after?

Me too. Decent deal, hard to find.

These can be cranked up and down vertically, as well as cranked to set the seat back at any angle. A nice upgrade for any Mooney older than mid-80s.

Any local hot rod interior shop can rebuild the foam and covers to a custom spec too.

The adjustable frame was an expensive option in the early 80's and not many buyers opted for them. They are near impossible to find in scrapyards because they are grabbed up immediately once a Mooney meets its maker.

Had I not just bought and installed ADSB last week, I'd have bought these for my C, but that seriously affected my mad money account . . . . So my wife will just have to keep stacking chair cushions on her seat.

Ah okay thanks for the info! My MSE came with them so wasn't aware they were a hot-ticket item for some other models.

They're hard to find because by the time they came out, the production numbers were way down compared to the mid 60s and late 70s so there just aren't tons available, but many candidate planes that could upgrade.
