Discontinued Ford/Merc parts?

[ET16]

I'm looking for seat cover for my 02 Merc Cougar (1S8Z6362901BAB). I can't seem to find one anywhere. Any ideas?

I have had good luck locating used parts through this site:

http://www.car-part.com

I would also search Ebay and Craigslist.

Here is a good way to search Craigslist nationwide:

If you want a brand new one, the only way you might be able to find one is to see if your local Ford dealership can check to see if there are any at any other dealerships (if they have a way to check that in their parts computer.)

Good luck in your search.

Yup, like most parts for Cougars of that vintage, no-one has it and it is obsolete from Ford. Best bet would be to try Ebay, salvage yards, LKQ, etc. Last known MSRP was $273.47. That part number is just for the seat bottom cover.

I would imagine that not many were stockpiled to begin with,once those sold out,they would obsolete them.If dealerships didn't have any on hand beforehand,that would mean unobtainum.

You should be able to get the original one re-upholstered.

I just buy new seat skins from JCWhitney. I had them in my Saturn, and they were awesome. I paid $500 for all seats.
