Post by: gnj588d on January 29, 2008, 15:14:19

The drivers side{RHD car} seat bolster has gone a bit lumpy is it a DIY job to put right, if so what do I need and whats involved,I wonder what has caused this to happen?.Any help would be much appreciated Cheers. Mike Rutledge.

It's probably a combination of broken springs and dry padding. DIY? Possibly. The springs may need some welding and the fabric covering the seats is often a mess when you open it up.

Hey Mike, I have the opposite problem. My seat seems less lumpy -- no, wait a minute ... its just that my wallet is getting thinner. [:p]

There's a step by step on seat pad replacement in the Technical Manual.
