Thank you for this information, I send an email to this company.
Do you know if the frame of the seats 59 Bonneville 2 doors are identical to the seats of 60 Impala 2 doors ? Because I need foams.

59 Sport Coupe.....Yes the seats are the same, but you need not spend extra money for the padding. Any good upholsterer will be able to provide the materials to do the job. Burlap goes over the springs, then 2" of foam. and finally cotton batting. As you take the seats apart, you will see what's needed......John
