Seat foam replacement?
Has anyone had to have the foam cushion in the drivers seat replaced? I feel like mine might be collapsed or flattened, the center part of the seat feels very soft and I find myself sinking into it, while the bolsters, particularly the right side, remain hard and dig into my leg. The car is uncomfortable after as little as 10-15 minutes, and it's bad enough that I've thought about selling the car because of it.
I feel like there's something wrong with the seat, because the passenger seat feels much firmer and is nowhere near as uncomfortable for me.
I found part number A2119102150 for the seat cushion pad, the description says it's applicable to cars with ventilated seats (which I don't have). Are the cushions different for vented and non-vented seats, and if so, what is the part number for the non-vented cushion? Is replacing this a DIY job, or is it something best left for the dealer or an upholstery shop?
