Re: 70 gmc DIY build

The foam isn't quite as dense as the seat foam but its the closest I could find in the thickness I needed. It was pretty simple marked my depth on a sharp knife cut strips front to back then went in perpendicular to the seat and cut them out. smoothed it out with a flap disc then glued in the new foam and dressed the edges with the flap disc to match the rest of the seat. DO THE SANDING OUTDOORS and compressed air is helpful to clean off afterwards because you'll be covered in bits of foam. I basically did this as a temporary measure till I get the seat recovered. Just has a saddle blanket cover on it now.
