Front seat base foam on vitesse

Hi. A bit out of my budget unfortunately, ready made.

Wondering if they can D.I.Y'ed, by shaping a block of general upholstery foam?.

Cheers, Dave

i tried that on my 2000 seats ,,, turned out awfull, general upholstery foam is cheap enough but you cant replicate  the different stiffness of bolsters etc. most pre formed foams are made up of a mix of foam types to get the support .

but a simple addition of a firm foam slab  between the old diaphragm and the depleting foam can add some good  rejuvenation to a saggy bottom is  well  worth a try

Google Livedale foam in Wigan, I use them for my business .they can supply cut to size foam in any thickness you want. If it's for your seat base I would suggest the firm white grade maybe 1 - 1.5 inches or so thick.

Pete shows how this can be achieved on the "other" site.
