    Puma Driver's Seat

    The seat back foam in my 2011 110 has collapsed on the left hand side. Probably due to the way I've been sitting - forced to the left due to closeness of the seat to the door.

    What's the best way to fix this? New seat? Can you get new foams? Any suggestions welcome.

    Thanks

    New seat foams for earlier seats are readily obtainable - so I assume they would be for recent models too.

    Extended seat rails, either fabricated yourself or bought from one of the many suppliers may be a remedy for you cramped seating position - my seat rails on my '87 are extended, raised about 15mm and shifted inwards about 25mm - makes it quite comfy really.

    For the foam look up Exmoor trim in the UK. For the seat rails look up Mulgo or www.expedition centre.com.au The seat rail extensions are one of the best investments I have made. Is the seat foam covered by warranty?

    It should still be covered by warranty, seat should last longer than that!

    Mines don't the same, and I would assume warranty would fix this. Happening soon for me I hope.
    I don't think its because you've "moved" over. I think its just a poor seat to start with, although I certainly don't have any comfort problems with it.

    I had the same thing, they "repaired" under warranty three times however it kept happening as they would just push the foam back in place. When I asked for a replacement they refused but I had so much other warranty work at the time I didnt push it and just got a pair of Schell-mann to replace them.

    Have you got any pics/info/price on the Schell-mann seats?
