Ed,

 

Glad I could help you out. I haven't done many 1st gen seats lately, so it was good to get to work on one again.

 

And for the rest of you folks with a 1st gen, even though the exteriors of the cover looks good (and most of them are), the interior layer is probably in pretty bad shape. If you notice the raised panels, they have a thin layer of foam covered by a sheet of heavy plastic that has been heat sealed to the cover bottom. After all of these years the layer of plastic has become brittle and is cracking away from the foam. And in most cases the thin layer of foam is also pulling away. So in this case, I remove the layer of plastic and most of the time the thin layer of deteriorating foam. But with a 1 1/2" layer of memory foam glued and shaped to the foundation foam, you now have a revived seat that will conform to the shape of your butt and will reduce pressure points.

 

In fact I've already seen at least one RSV seat in just about this same condition. These standard RSV seats are designed in this same manner with panels with a thin layer of foam covered by a layer of heavy plastic sheet molded into each panel. This gives the cover that puffy look with each panel.

 

There you have it,

 

Rick
