Where can I get some basic pad seats for a 7

Tried all the usual sites but no one seems to do basic pad seats.

Due to my fat ass I need a basic pad combined with the in situ 6 point harness already in the car

Also could do with it yesterday!!!!

J K Composites do some really nice ones but I'm sure they are made from something similar to the foam from a camping mat. Have a go and save yourself a few quid.

Mine are cut from camping mat. Got it from Decathelon who do several thickness'. Alternatively, Aldi have multi-pupose floor mats on offer at the moment that you could cut some from.

I made myself some from high density foam that cost me about £7 for a massive roll. I had way more than enough to have a few goes to get the result I wanted. I used some spray adhesive to stick them onto the seats and the job was a good 'un.

I think plywood, foam and a cover you can buy at Halfords or somewhere would be cheapest.

Post in the wanted section on www.tigerownersclub.co.uk as people usually have some sitting in their garage where they have upgraded their seats.

I think I may have a set in my garage if I can find them. If you're interested?

Best to use closed cell sponge foam not the absorbent type used for general car and domestic upholstery.
