Abstract
A vehicle seat in which the cushion frame is formed by extruded frame members that are extruded as a long rail and then cut to the desired length for the seat assembly. The remaining components of the seat frame are universal and can be used with a seat of any width. The seat structure enables the seat manufacturer to stock a minimum number of components for seats of varying widths and can easily change from production of seats of one width to seats of a different width.
