[QUOTE="oreana, post: 1329418, member: 89696"] I bought a Corbin seat off of the classified ads and decided to modify the foam in the seat. Drilling out the rivets and separating the foam from the cover revealed very little foam between the cover and seat pan- hence the firmness of the seat. Costco has pillows made up of memory foam reasonably priced at 2 for 10 bucks. I made up two patterns for foam insert/covers to lie between the original cover and the foam on the seat pan. I have a sewing machine that allows me to sew pads to hold the loose foam in the pillow and then I cut the pillow shapes to fit the seat pan. My pneumatic stapler would not penetrate the seat pan so I used self tapping lath screws to hold the cover in place. The screws went right into the old rivet holes perfectly. My seat feels great on my butt and private parts. It is much more puffy but looks like it was intended to be that way. Now I'll have to do the passenger seat. Yes I do have pictures. No I haven't been able to post them. Working on it [/QUOTE]
