Experience with SF202 seat foam?
 
Have you tried the OER SF202 seat foam? I can buy it from Summit and they're one of the only suppliers that figured out reasonable shipping options for Canada. I see from a couple of the reviews the foam might be more firm and maybe taller than stock but seems to fit fine under new seat covers. I'm wondering if it's worth a shot.

Is that for the 81-87 bench seat bottom foam? Try CJ Pony. They have free shipping in the states, but only a small fee to ship to Canada

I went and looked it up, that foam your asking about is for the 73-80 seat. I have used both styles. They are all made by DashesDirect

Thanks Tina. Looks like the CJ Pony listing is for 73-81. Between the CJ Pony and the SF202 from Summit, would you recommend one over the other?

It will be going on this frame.

The seat you have is a 81-87, and need a 81-87 foam. The one from Summit is for a 73-80.

And to be quite honest, I’m not sure why you think you need new foam. It doesn’t look like anything is wrong with that one. Probably all you need is a new grid and springs. Not sure if you have seen my thread for restoring seats. But the backbone of the seat, is the grid & springs. Get those nice and snug, and your good to go.
I’d be one happy camper if I got a seat core with that foam.

Ok! I will reconsider. Thanks for directing me to the right foam either way.
