drivers seat foam going!
I have seen so many fords and lincolns with the drivers side foam seat padding crumbling. It ends up letting the leather get all wrinkled. Has any body just tried to shove new foam from the underside as a cheap fix? I know the right way to do it, but I don't want to spend a weekend doing that.

No matter what you stuff in there it will never feel the same. Save yourself the trouble and do it right. It sucks that this is a "routine maintence" item. My seat is doing the same thing but I have cloth and mine has a nice tear in it.

I've got the black leather and it's starting to look pretty bad. I have a buddy that pulled of the skins and did replace sections of foam w/ a heavier more dense type and swears by it.

Another victim of the crappy Ford cloth and foam.

I don't even want to know how much ford charges for a piece of foam
