[QUOTE="painman, post: 207529, member: 1114"] If you can find someone to do your seat for that much and do a good job, jump on it. Did mine with much attention to detail and completely redesigned the seat. Took an upholstery class and it turned out as well as any Russell or other brand. But it was alot of work. You don't have to go as far as this though. Some people remove the staples as mentioned and cut out an area about an inch deep and 4X8"in the middle of the seating area and install another type of foam or gel. I might reccomend purchasing some material called "Pudgee" instead of gel. It is a closed cell foam that feels like gel that works well. It is not reccomended to try and shape this type of material. Just make it level with the surface of your stock seat and replace the cover with staples. It will be an improvement over the soft stock foam. PM. <>< ;) [/QUOTE]
