Dunlopillo seat foams

[57_BN4]

I heard somewhere that the original type seat foams are being reproduced, anyone know more about this?

There are a few sources for polyurethane foam but I really like the old car smell of the original materials.

I would like to know this too, as I did my seats a year or so ago with the garden variety seat foams (Moss sourced) and would prefer the more rubbery original types.

I even went so far as to "relieve" the base foams (with a holesaws) but I still feel I'm sitting on top of the seat, rather than in it.

Keep us posted, if you turn up anything; I don't mind redoing my seats (I considered that project__using vinyl vs leather__as my"starter" seats :wink: ).

For anyone out there who plans on refoaming your seats, a little tip! Wrap your new foams in cellophane..then they will slide in the seat covers with ease! Makes things a whole lot easier!

I used the garment bags from the cleaners.
