Default Seat foam?

Does anyone have a source on new/repro seat foam for the 98-02 camaros? I can't seem to find anything anywhere past 92. How is it that the 4th gens are the gens that time forgot?

Probably have to search ebay for used foam. I think 4th gen seat foam is discontinued.

Damn, I was afraid that'd be your answer. Considering the cost of re-upholstery and foam... might be better to upgrade to vette seats.

Have you checked marketplace for seats? I know my 98 Z was cloth and I landed a real clean set of leather ebony seats from a junk yard. I want to say it was like 100 bucks for fronts and back.

Folks have been asking about reproduction seat foam for quite some time now. I'm surprised that Hawks Motorsports isn't yet offering this...maybe it's in the works.
