Seat Foam. - 2003-04 Mach 1 Registry Owners Club

WalkrTexasRngr · 04-19-2013, 04:48 PM

My leather seats are in like new shape but I've noticed my drivers side outer bottom seat bolster seems to be going flat. Just on the seat. Not on the back. I was wondering if there's anywhere that sells seat foam only. It's not bad but I think the leather on the bolster is being creased more because it's more loose in this area.

Too bad you can't just buy the bottom. It's kinda pricey for two pieces of foam

50Resto is going to be at the Bullitt/Mach 1 Shootout this weekend. Hopefully they will have some of the TMI seat covers there. I'm sure that they could sell several to the Bullitt boys and the Machsters if they are close to the originals. I'll ask them.

Sweet thanks. I might just replace all of the drivers foam in the near future.

If I remember right you can't use there foam on an original seat skin.

Nope, I already asked that. Don't know if it has to do with a design issue or just a way to force you into buying their covers as well...

I was lucky enough to win a brand new original set of skins off ebay that was being sold by another member here about a year and a half ago. Paid about $600 for both pieces. Now I have to look for a new set of foam for myself so I can keep the skins and foam put away until needed.

Surprised this link still works after a year and a half.

I understood that 50Resto was going to be at the Shootout. They were not (or at least I didn't see them). So much for a good idea.

I didn't see any vendors...the guy who drove his Bullitt from new Mexico sure could have used a vendor.
