Need to get some prices from local shops to do the foam I guess.

Thanks

Tim, seems that the Blazer/Jimmy foam sold by LMC is actually the truck seat foam and they are unable to answer any install questions. Hopefully you have the answers so I can get this ordered from you.


1. Is the truck bench seat foam the same thickness as the Blazer/Jimmy rear seat? Or does it require adding or removing foam to make it the same thickness?

2. Will the truck bench seat foam only require the trimming of the sides to match the width of the Blazer/Jimmy bench seat?

I don't know if you've ever done this before, but if you have and have any specific info it would be appreciated. If I can, I would like to get the foam from the same vendor so the foam is the same in consistency, firmness etc. But if I have to add foam to the truck seat or worse, remove foam, to get the correct thickness I'll go with a local re-upholstery guy.
