Does anybody know of a junkyard in L.A. where I can get a driver seat for my 1993 SL2? The back on my seat has collapsed.

Collapsed as in won't stay upright? When I drove cab our shop used to just lift the covering and weld the seat back together. They used to break because some of the drivers kept their change in their pockets and when they went digging they put a lot of pressure on the seat back. That and the drunks pulling on them when they got in and out. Funny becasue everyone blamed the heavy guys but the skinny ones were the hardest on the seats. I stopped keeping my change in my pocket when the first seat gave out on me. I don't know if you looked into it or if it would be more expensive than the junkyard but maybe there is a shop that could fix your seat.
 
I think the metal support in the center of the back is just broken, so that the top half of the back just hangs backwards. Also, a piece of metal is sticking out which would poke me in the back if I didn't pad it with a notepad. Does anyone know offhand if a 2001 SL2 seat will work in a 1993 SL2? I'm eyeing this Ebay auction:
