Just spoke to the Shop and they said they are awear of the way it needs to be stitched. They do the custom work for the MB dealer that I bought my Benz from.

He showed some pics of a s class he did.

he even said if i wanted he could a leather that had a slight mettalic look to it.

he is changing the shifter boot also.

I even talked him into making a leather insert for where the ashtray is because I am going to make it a docking station for my ipod.

I would rather have the seat back and butt area in memory foam and leave the side bolsters alone... You dont put much weight into them untill you turn, in which case you dont want them to be soft because you will loose lateral support which was really the basis for bucket seats.
