MGB Seat Cover Installation

Hi!

This spring, I’ll be installing new perforated vinyl seat covers in my 1977 MGB. I will also be installing new webbing and seat foams. I have seen some various forum posts that talk about removing some of the new seat foam because the new foam is more dense than the original, making the driver sit too high, making windshield vision difficult for tall drivers. I am 6’-1” tall. Has anyone had experience with this?

On a side note, my supplier (Rimmer Bros.) did not have Autumn Leaf perforated vinyl headrest covers. I’ve not found a supplier. Any suggestions?

Thanks for your time.
Cheers!
Al
