Ultimate Seats like in my cart above were $1500 from TV, however they have gone out of business. The Villages Golf Cars and Carts & Clubs in Ocala now offer El Tigree Seats, they are about $1400 to $1800 depending on the style. I've heard Carts & Clubs in Ocala will sell the seats for the factory direct price, which is about $200 cheaper than the amounts I stated.

Looking at a thread from January, a poster said these seats are being sold by a Villager for $900 installed.

You'll need to send him a private message for the details, here's the thread.

Check out what you want at their store. Write everything down then order what you want on the internet. Buying straight from the manufacturer cuts out the middle man and they will deliver too.

I bought this 2017 Yamaha Drive 2 gas cart new from a dealer in southern Georgia, had him add a few options like turning signal mirrors, folding windshield, rain cover for golf bags, he shipped it to me for $200. Then added customs seats, 10 inch wheels and tires myself.

Total cost was $8750

I bought a new 2019 Drive2 PTV from a dealer in Gadsden, AL (near me at the time) and did the same thing. Saved about $2,500 compared to TV area dealers. The base cart there was only $6,600.

You absolutely can save at least $2K by going away from TV. I know because I did.

I got the touring edition seats with armrests and upgraded snakeskin and ostrich vinyl for $680. Easy self install using bolts from standard Yamaha seats. They are every bit as good as ultimate seats at less than half the price.

Build your cart on Yamahas website to get an idea of what MSRP is on the cart you want. Once armed with that go to a dealer and work on any extra aftermarket options and price you want.

That's a great deal on those seats. I see one drawback, none of those had a center armrest and that is something I really appreciate. I wonder why they don't offer that option, El Tigre does.

For $600 it's certainly bargain, did you have to pay shipping from Texas?

These are my 9 year old Ultimate Seats

On some of the items that I have on my cart they seemed a bit high, but it gives us one more option for accessories. I have the ball and club washer from TV, installed by TV for $49.99 which included the bracket. Their's runs between $62 to $76 plus another $36 for the bracket.

This cooler is a better price, it's $66 with that bracket and TV is asking $80. The one I bought for $100 that's even bigger and more insulated they didn't offer.

I also looked up a fan for 12v golf cart, and they were asking $117. Buggies Unlimited has it for $100.

I bought one Saturday, supposedly the last day of the $1000 discount on upgrades/accessories PLUS 3 years free financing. A Yamaha Quiet Tek gas, salmon color, so "pretty." They are pricey. Trying to decide on insurance now. I have USAA for my auto and home. I've read suggestions to chose a completely seperate company. I had spoken to USAA about NOT being able to use it under my homeowners which only covers you on the golf course. I may just go with the villages.
