 I bought a high back seat from Napa for my 716H. Bolted that dude right on. Think it was $60 bucks. Even adjusts. (for a guy  my size, I need adjustments)

Tom, I believe the $200 seat is a "Milsco" and will not look like the original seat. I like the thick rubber covered seats sold at Charlie's and Rural King. I think they are around $50 at Charlies. I put one on the 6216 before I sold it and I put one on my B-110. The thick cover slips over a metal base and is much more durable than the "Michigan" style seats. I don't think any of the generic seats will attach using the original holes. I made an adapter plate to attach mine without drilling the seat deck.

seems like the seats on the 712h are one of the first to go. I need one badly to.
