What brand head in 342?

I was asked by the admiral about replacing the seat on the head.  I looked but didn't see any markings (in obvious places) to identify the brand.  Anybody know off hand what brand electric head is in the 342?

    When I needed to replace the seat on the head in my boat I found one at Lowes...way less than the marine stores wanted to charge, and it fit perfect.

    Hmmmm, I figured the marine head seats were much smaller than household toilets.

    Stodge,

    Look at the video I added to the New boater seeking dos and donts.  It could be a Jabsco 37010.  Does it look like that?  Mine is an electric flush head that I am sure is that 37010.  I have a 2002 342.  I am trying to learn as much as possible right now on all the boat components and posting what I know on that discussion thread.

    yea I've never been able to find a seat replacement at a big box store, but some of the hinges from Home Depot do match the Jabsco hinges. I broke a Jabsco hinge and a cheap HD toilet seat hinge matched it perfect.

    My hinges broke too. I tried the Menards attempt. Hinges are super close but the holes were just off enough to not make it work. I ended up just buying a new seat.
