Foam for seat and back source
Has anyone purchased the foam kit available from LMC? It sounds like it only has teh foam for the seat portion, not the back rest. Does anyone know a good source for recovering and re-foaming the seats?

Need to do mine but that stuff is high, think I might be able to buy a good used seat for that price.

My recommendation is find a local upholstery shop that does automotive stuff. Let them refoam/recover your seats. They still do that you know.
I wouldn't buy girl scout cookies from LMC. Most of their stuff is blems or 2nd's from Dennis Carpenter or the other big names. Not to mention it's overpriced.

Thats what I was thinking about. We have a good upolstry shop here just havent had time to stop by. I ordered a anti rattle kit for the side windows of my truck from LMC. Didnt seem to fit quite right, got them on and is way better than what I had but little disappointed

Stop by & make friends with the people running the shop. They're your best bet. The do it yourself covers are waaay overpriced! A quality shop can make a original looking seat cover for lots less, in most cases.
