Yes, I've done just that for a non-Packard car that I own, to get some specialty clamps, which proved to be one-time affair.

Problem is figuring out the proper material, finish, and thickness needed. I'm no engineer - merely going gut feeling WRT problem and educated guess WRT cure. Returning for additional samples for same project, without a purchase, kinda undermines one's credibility with the supplier.

Then, I wasn't looking at this solution for only myself, but thinking of other owners of same. Alas, I doubt if there are a sufficient number of Caribs, as the seat is a one year design, to merit a purchase. One site showed a minimum order quantity of 5,000 pieces.
