Default Seat Foam replacement.... Memory Foam?

I recall reading a post recently where a vendor had a replacement seat foam available for C5 sport seats. It was a "Memory foam" I believe, a definite upgrade from the stock seat foam. Anyone recall who the vendor is?

Does this only come in the seat section? How about the back and side bolsters?

From what I see on his website, it's only the lower seat section. I agree, I'd like a complete set. Dave, when you get back from your wedding, maybe you could work on that?

Anybody purchase this yet and can tell us what the difference is as far as comfort and support? I have a used seat cushion in my office and was planning on buying a couple of pieces of memory foam and cutting out the bottom and customizing it. If this is true memory foam it saves me the trouble

I just replaced my driver's seat foam with Dave's foam.
Much better support IMO.

So does it conform better to your body or is it just firmer?
