I want to replace my seat cover on my 85 200s. I called up hi flite and for just the cover, they want $81 shipped to my door. I went and checked on ebay and found this...

for $84 shipped to my door, and it included new seat foam. I understand that the Hi-Flite is probably more durable, but it is worth spending 80 bucks on just a cover whereas i could get that cover and foam for $84 or that same cover for just $35 bucks.
My seat foam is complete, and the cover has a few cracks at the corners and maybe a tear or two, but its kinda hard and glossy and slippery now, not soft as before, so I would like to replace it.
Do the seat foams get harder after 20 years of use? Is it worth replacing at the same time as the seat cover?
Please let me know what you think I should do.
Thanks,
Mike
