    Seat Foam

    I see seats on Ebay and Craigslist. If you do not find a used one, a good upholstery shop should be able to fix you up.

      Reading your signature I see "wife sold". I gotta ask. How much did you get for her?

      The foam you can buy in blocks in the density you like and carve out the shape you need. It's pretty easily carved with what else but an electric carving knife. You know, for carving your Thanksgiving bird and such. Then, 3M spray adhesive and some thin sheet foam over that to smooth it out.

      The seat covers are usually pretty available on ebay.
