Triumph TR6 - Seat Foam

Anyone aware of where I can purchase seat foam at a reasonable cost. Also, approximately what the cost for an installer? Thanks. Shawn.

All the big suppliers sell seat foam kits. Go on-line for current prices.
Just plain foam that could be used for seats...no idea...google might yield a source.
You should also replace the diaphragm at the same time.
No idea on an installer cost. I have done mine myself. I would take a guess at $150/seat.

Shawn,
Try contacting a boat outfitter (also known as "ship's chandler")
The costs are usually a lot less than auto places and they are frequently asked to do "one offs" and provide parts so boaties can do their own stuff.

Quick tip: Go for "closed cell" foam. If any water does get in there the closed cell type foam won't soak it up like a sponge in the sink.

Good luck , Pete.
