Seat Foam
 
Does anyone know if its possible and not too hard to switch the seat foam from the bottom of the drivers seat with the pass seat?

You'd have to take the seat apart and remove the leather. Its really not too hard, just a bit time consuming.

A quick fix that I've seen some people do is to just lay a few plexi glass stripes across the metal bars. This way the foam doesn't sink.

Yes the foam is interchangeable. As for covering the wires, I didn't want a solid solution because I wanted to maintain flex. Instead of plexi, I used wire screen mesh and wrapped that and the wires with aluminum tape. So now the wires and mesh are one big flexible plate.

Any pics of the process?

Seat
 
My Driver left wing(the part that comes up by your leg is really flattish??? So I was thinking about switching the foams. The wire slash tape sounds like something I would want to do at the same time.
thanks

Sorry, but I don't have any pics. I did this months ago (I think it was summer) and didn't take pics.
