You don't mention the year just the age, but if you have an '84 (31 years old) those seats are junk and should be replaced with '86 or newer.  '85s are okay too, but don't have adjustable arm rests.  These seats actually have molded foam in them!

Subject: Seat Question

After the 600 mile round trip this weekend to Everybus, I'm looking for seat upgrades/alternatives. My 30 year old stock seats just aren't that comfortable to my 57 year old butt & back. Does new seat foam really help? As for seat alternatives, my problem there is my 6'4" height. I really can't go with too thick of a seat cushion as my head almost touches the roof now! TIA, Jeff
