Re: Question about foam deterioration on vinyl seat covers

Leonard, thanks for the information. When I'm ready, I'll either try my self or have an upholstery shop replace the foam. If I know it's bad, no sense in spending the money, time and effort to put them on that way.

Re: Question about foam deterioration on vinyl seat covers

Regarding dried out foam in exiting seats, most of the work is getting the loose cover to the table; you're more than halfway there. An upholstery shop may want to completely remove the cloth backed foam and replace it and getting the old seams to line up may be a problem. What I suggest is like liposuction and sliding in new foam strips. If nothing else, you can't do any harm and it is a very cheap repair. Good luck.
