My original RS1 cockpit seat is going on near 10 years and the leather is starting to crack and and the seat cushion is pretty well worn.

Before I go back to RSeat to purchase a replacement, does have any experience with other alternatives that might work?

There are various seats on the market but it seems like guesswork if they fit.
 
I reached out to RSeat about the same thing. I've been getting ghosted for two weeks now.

Looks like standard side mountings so quiet sure it will fit any available side mounted passenger car seat. They are stating 450mm width at the rig and 445mm at the seat. So pretty sure everything from 400mm to 500mm can fit with little adjustments. If not directly just use washers or better widen the lower L-bracket holes connecting to the slider if they aren't like this from the factory. Normally done at L-brackets for cars to fit every seat and have wiggle room fitting them to the car.

I emailed the American store last week looking for advice/options, haven’t got a response either.

I just found the EU store sells the leather covers. I’d consider that instead of replacing the entire seat but need to find if the EU store will ship to the U.S.

LMK what you find out, I'll keep looking/asking and do the same.

They should ship to US as even orders out of US store ship from Bulgaria - just ordered a buttkicker plate and that’s where its shipping from
 
The EU store promptly replied overnight, they said to email the U.S. store to place order. Now waiting for a response.

Have a feeling since the item isn’t listed on the U.S. site I may be waiting for a while.
