I know that I've got waaaay more to work on than my seats, and for what they are they're fairly comfortable, but every little bit helps on those looooong drives to 914 events. I was considering getting some of that "memory foam" (tempurpedic matress type stuff) and repadding the seat, back and bolsters. Aircraft Spruce sells some foam specifically designed for aircraft, but it's apparently made of spun gold for the price they're asking (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) , so I did an EvilBay search and found some 1"- 2" pads used for horse saddles that were quite a bit bigger.......and a helluvalot cheaper.

Just wondering if anyone has done this, and if the "end (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/bootyshake.gif) " results were worth it.

Kev,
Go to Wal Mart and look for the bet top foam that they sell in a box. It costed me like $50-60 and is a queen size piece. I used it on my bed and love it. I have been entertaining the idea of using it in a seat, but I would only use a thin layer on the parts that get constant pressure like the ass and back parts. Not the bolsters. Try a fabric/upholsery place as well. They will have it for much less.
