Default Seat Foam

For anyone that has replaced their bottom seat foam, where are you getting it? OEM? Aftermarket vendor here? Mine are a little flat,PO was a larger gentleman, and Id like to get them back in shape....
Thanks!

I ordered full seat foam from PFYC. The were pretty quick and priced reasonable. Haven't installed yet due to still waiting on my new leather from another vendor. But did check them out and they look like good quality.

When you do the replacement, make sure to put some burlap or a pad between the seat wires and the foam. This will prevent the wires from cutting into the new foam. Good foam can be purchased from a wide variety of vendors. I would shop around for the best price. Check the transaction forum to make sure the the vendor is reputable. I have used PFYC for things in the past. They fall under the RPI umbrella. You'll likely get good foam from them, but it might take awhile, and their customer service is hard to reach.
