Thanks Thomas for putting that together since I never successfully documented it properly lol

The seat is great Aaron. I have not driven my truck since the middle of Sept, dang Mustang, my wife got to drive it to my house from her dad's a couple a weeks ago.Nice write up Thomas. The seat really does sit and ride a lot better now. Thanks again for the repair.

Has anyone tried to order foam online and custom shape it using old foam for a template?

I don't anticipate it would be too hard to do it that way, albeit it more costly. It would allow for a good mix of firm/soft using different types though.

The main issue would be that there is a very tough Velcro made into the foam to give the pull down for the contours. Of the sets I personally done I have not seen any that bad to need replaced.really the biggest issue is who ever built the seats for ford is they were incomplete. I guess the bean counters ruined our seats too.

Some use velcro, some use Hog rings to attach the seat cover the the foam.

So you would somehow need to integrate that into the foam to attach the cover
