Default seat bottom foam

Can someone advise me on where I can get a new replacement foam for my seat bottom? Thanks.

Here's a tip. If your passenger seat is in good shape, the bottom will swap directly on your driver seat. I did it and made a world of difference. Just remove the four small bolts underneath the bottom and swap it. Very easy and effective. Then you can take your time getting the 'old' driver bottom fixed at a shop.

Does that work with power seats too?

I just thought of something. How does this work with the manual seat back adjustment handles sticking out of the side of the seat bottom?

Yep, should work with power seats too as the foam "bottom" is just bolted to the frame which is controlled by the motor.

Claymore, do you mean the handle to control the recline of the seat back? No problem, as it is not attached to the seat bottom. Just stick you head behind the seat and look for 4 little bolts, I think they're 10mm but not sure. They just attach the seat foam to the frame from underneath, one in each corner. It's a tight fit if your head is large.

I did this for another forum and could give you a link, but I think it would violate some rule.
