That's how i did my beetle seats and they are really comfy

Cheers, thanks for the advise, I will give it a shot [THUMBS UP SIGN]

VW Busshop.de do the seat base foam for early or swivel seats but so far not the bigger caravelle foam. They also have seat covers and material but it all gets pricey to reupholster a seat properly.

Ok thanks for the info [THUMBS UP SIGN]

So good day yesterday getting seats sorted with the help of some flexible Ikea chopping boards. Also headrests added to the basic seats with thanks to multisi on the forum.

Drivers seat is so much better now the springs aren’t in my back! Image
