2026 EZGO Rear Seat Cushion Set: the Short Version

The Black Golf Cart Rear Seat Cushion Set (SKU 2162) is a direct bolt-on rear seating replacement for the whole EZGO TXT-platform family: TXT from 1995 through the 2026 model year, plus ST, ST Sport, and the 2026 E-Z-GO Valor with its 48V AC drive and TXT-heritage steel frame. Two cushions per set — one seat bottom, one backrest.

Verified Specifications

Full data source: KOEEP SKU 2162 — product listing and current inventory. All dimensions verified against 2026 E-Z-GO TXT platform specifications published by Textron Specialized Vehicles; standards references current as of Q2 2026.

Material Engineering: Three Layers, Four Standards

The set clears the 2026 aftermarket material compliance benchmarks Textron Specialized Vehicles applies to PTV interior components. Three layers do the work:

What each layer does

Outer skin. Marine-grade vinyl with UV-inhibitor technology, tested to the SAE J2412 accelerated weathering protocol — a 500+ hour xenon-arc exposure rating. Flammability compliance covers FMVSS 302, ISO 3795, and SAE J369 (2019/2024 revision) for horizontal burning of polymeric interior materials.

Core padding. High-density polyurethane foam: 3 inches on the seat bottom, 2 inches on the backrest. Compression set is capped at ≤10% under ASTM D3574, tested at 25°C and 50% compression. That limit is what keeps the cushion from going flat after a couple of hard seasons.

Substrate. Molded HDPE backing board with impact resistance per ISO 180 / ASTM D256. Multiple molded mounting holes let the set bolt straight onto most aftermarket rear seat kits — no cutting, no fabrication.

Fitment Across the 2026 E-Z-GO Lineup

Textron builds the 2026 range on modularity at the Augusta, GA plant, and all three 2026 models share the TXT-derived rear seat geometry this set services:

• Valor — entry-level 48V AC-drive, roughly $9,500–$11,500 MSRP, on a TXT-heritage steel frame.
• RXV — the enhanced version Textron introduced in 2025 for MY2026.
• Liberty — the four-forward-facing-seat configuration with the ECOXGEAR IntelliScreen.

That shared architecture locks the rear seat envelope in place: 37.4 × 14.2 × 3 inches on the bottom, 35.4 × 9.5 inches on the backrest, each within ±0.2 inch. Textron's major TXT revisions came in 1995, 2001, and 2014, so the platform should hold this envelope through at least MY2028 — the next big change lands no earlier than MY2029–2030.

Buy once, fit the whole family. To finish the cabin, match the rear set with the Black Golf Cart Front Cushion Seat Cover for EZGO TXT so both rows wear the same black vinyl.

Diagnostics: What a Cushion Can and Cannot Do

A rear seat cushion is passive and non-sensored — it cannot trigger the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or store an OBD-II DTC on any 2026 EZGO platform. The MIL answers only to powertrain and emissions parameters: DTC P0101 (mass air flow circuit), P0300–P0304 misfires on EFI gas variants, CAN-bus faults from the 48V BMS on electric units, PDS codes 1-1 through 4-4 for controller, throttle, and solenoid checks on electric TXT models, and U0001–U0300 network faults.

Where the seat does matter: exposed foam on a worn OEM cushion absorbs water, and that moisture corrodes under-seat electrical connectors on TXT-platform models. If the corrosion reaches EGR solenoid circuits on EFI gas carts, you end up chasing P0400–P0499 EGR/AIR codes. A sealed marine-vinyl set ends that secondary risk.

Four Signs the Cushions Are Done

• Cracked, "alligatoring" vinyl — surface checking, accelerated by the thinner OEM vinyl spec on 2026 entry-level Valor trims.
• Compression set over 25% — measure at the center; under 2.25 inches of remaining foam means collapse.
• Faded color — a Delta-E above 5 on a spectrophotometer means the UV inhibitors are spent.
• Water in the core — press firmly; if water seeps from the stitching, the moisture barrier has failed.

High-UV states — AZ, FL, TX, CA — see fleet TXT models hit this cycle in 3–5 years. The KOEEP inhibitors carry the same 500+ hour SAE J2412 rating: 3–5 seasons of colorfastness in direct sun. Five seasons recreational; budget three for commercial duty.

Aftermarket Set vs. OEM Cushions

The cross-reference everyone asks about, 629269G4206, is a front seat bottom assembly — not a rear part — in standard-grade automotive vinyl. On the rear side, OEM kit replacements often exceed $269 for a single bottom assembly; 10046625G18 is the typical example.

The KOEEP set runs heavier-gauge marine vinyl with documented SAE J2412 UV testing — a material tier E-Z-GO reserves for its premium Liberty and Express trims. Better UV and moisture resistance than the OEM standard-grade skin, at a significantly lower price, bolt-pattern matched to the OEM holes.
