nickm11 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 I have a 95 ES300 and the drivers seat is loosing it's shape and support from age and use. I've tried several kinds of padding to add to the inside of the seat, but I still feel the lumbar support very hard against my back. I thought I would try adding the original cushion padding between the flat lumbar support and my back. Does anyone know the name and where I might find the original cushion material? Thanx, Nick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

intakerGS Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 In fact, seeing a seat repair shop is a good advice, you can 'feel' the differences in foam used. Usually, Polyfoam is used in seat upholstry. It comes in 'closed-' and 'open cell' density formats. You can lookup the differences, where 'open cell' provides more comfort and 'closed cell' more firmness and upholding it's profile much longer. I suggest you don't choose the original stuff (I suspect open cell polyfoam), but select a suitable polyfoam that's more firm. It also has firmness grades to choose from.
