I have an older house, built in 1974. It has a Champain brand toilet, which is imprinted on the inside of the tank top. The seat itself is unusual in that the bolts that attach it to the toilet go through the tank and are bolted through the tank, the nut and washer inside the tank. The seat itself is worn out and discolored, in fact the plasticized fake procelin covering the seat is almost worn through. I have tried to find an aftermarket replacment but all the oval seats of whatever brand that I could find bold through the toilet not the tank.
The seat is an oval shape.
There is a set of numbers stamped into the underside of the lid as follows:
913310
1473
4547
Can you tell me how to get a replacement

The more I stick around here, the more I think I'd never buy anything Kohler. I bought one thing in my bath remodel, and it has been nothing but problems, from delivery to quality, to operations.

Unless you are really lucky, the only place you might get a seat is from Kohler, assuming it is one of theirs. Hold onto your hat when you see the prices (unless you're very lucky). It might be time to update the thing to a new low-flow toilet.
