Fixed my failing seat grid for $5 !!! 200

I was tired of feeling like I was sitting on the floor... my seat grid was failing near the front of the seat. The front two seat springs had actually fallen off The seat grid is NLA from volvo and IPD was out of stock. I pulled the seat this afternoon and picked up a 1/4-20 turnbuckle and 12" of swing-set type chain from the hardware store. Basically just strung the turnbuckle and chain between the front-most springs. Let me tell you, the difference is night and day. I like it so much I might add the turnbuckle assembly every other spring. I posted a pic in the technical gallery. Enjoy!!!
