I did a cheapo fix to my slightly sagging drivers base cushion. My seat cover was in good condition, it was just the outside edge of the foam that had collapsed. I was thinking of buying a new foam cushion. But then I got to thinking that, the passenger side cushion is practically brand new, and 80% of the time I'm the only one in the car. As my foam wasn't too bad, I decided to swap them over.
I installed the cushion on drivers side last night. Wow... I actually have support on the side now and the seat is a lot more comfortable. I didn't realise how it had sagged. I might have to replace the foam pad on the passenger side now. I will see if my wife notices and complains or how bad I feel about it sagging on her side. She has already labelled it the slowest car in the world, so not sure if I want to add uncomfortable to that moniker.
I haven't installed the passenger side yet. So I'll post up some details of how I did it (a bit of a PIA). There was a thread on here about swapping in a cushion from a 2nd hand set of seats, which sounded easy. But I found mine to be a bit more difficult than that thread sounded, not sure if it is due to the leather. I ended up pulling the seats out after spending an hour messing with the passenger seat in the car. This made it heaps easier.
the new(to my side of the car anyway) seat cushion.
I drive the car through the biggest puddles I could find!! The little one in the car loved the splashes. Some of the drains on the roads here are a bit blocked.
Cheers
