Short answer: choose an EZGO TXT replacement seat by exact model year and by what actually needs replacing: the bottom cushion, backrest, full front-seat assembly, or upholstery only. Many current front-seat assemblies target 1994/1994.5-2013 TXT and Medalist carts.
A replacement seat is different from a seat cover. If the foam is crushed, the seat base is cracked, or mounting points are damaged, a cover will only hide the problem. If the structure and foam are still sound, a model-specific TXT seat cover may be the simpler repair.
What to inspect before ordering
- Model year: verify the listed TXT/Medalist range.
- Bottom vs backrest: some products replace only one piece.
- Complete assembly: check whether brackets, hinges, or mounting hardware are included.
- Seat base condition: do not install new cushions on a cracked or loose foundation.
- Color: tan, black, and beige shades vary between manufacturers.

NOKINS premium front seat
This is a broader front-seat replacement option listed for TXT 1994-up/RXV 2008-up. Because it spans models, compare mounting details carefully against the original TXT hardware.
HEOHOU bottom cushion assembly for 1994-2013 TXT
This makes sense when the lower cushion is the damaged component but the backrest and frame remain usable. Confirm whether your mounting hardware can be reused.
HEOHOU full front cushion set
This kit includes both bottom and backrest cushions for the listed 1994-2013 TXT/Medalist range, useful when both pieces are worn or mismatched.
Replacement seat vs upholstery replacement
Use a full cushion assembly when the foam has collapsed, the seat pan is damaged, or the original cushion shape is no longer supportive. Use replacement upholstery when the problem is mainly torn or faded vinyl and the foam/base are still structurally sound.
Check hinges and mounting points
Seat cushions often reuse hinges, latches, brackets, or threaded inserts. Photograph the original hardware before disassembly and inspect for bent tabs, rust, stripped threads, or loose fasteners. New cushions will not correct a worn hinge or damaged seat frame.
Seat height and steering clearance
After installation, confirm that the cushion sits flat and does not materially change driver position. Excessive foam height or incorrect mounting can affect steering-wheel clearance and pedal comfort.
Rear-seat kits are a separate fitment problem
A front replacement seat does not tell you anything about rear flip-seat fitment. If you are converting the cart to four-passenger use, see our TXT rear seat kit guide.
Installation checklist
- Photograph hinge and bracket positions.
- Remove the old cushion without forcing reused hardware.
- Inspect the seat base and mounting points.
- Transfer only sound hardware.
- Align both cushions before final tightening.
- Confirm the seat opens, closes, and latches correctly.
When only the bottom cushion needs replacement
Bottom cushions usually wear faster because they carry the driver’s full weight and see more entry/exit abrasion. If the backrest remains firm, straight, and cosmetically acceptable, replacing only the lower cushion can be sensible. Compare upholstery color carefully because an older backrest may have faded relative to a new cushion.
Check seat latching after the repair
On carts where the front seat lifts for battery or engine access, confirm the replacement cushion opens and closes without binding. A misaligned latch or hinge can make routine maintenance harder and can place stress on the new seat base.
Foam firmness and driver comfort
Replacement cushions can feel firmer than a worn original seat because the old foam has compressed over years of use. Give the new cushion time to break in, but make sure the seat still supports the driver evenly and does not create pressure against the steering wheel or pedals. If the new cushion sits noticeably higher, recheck driving position before regular use.
Bottom line
Buy an EZGO TXT replacement seat by the exact damaged component and model year. A complete front cushion set is worthwhile when foam and upholstery are both worn; a bottom-only replacement can save money when the backrest is still good. Fix the frame and hardware at the same time so the new cushions are installed on a sound foundation.
