Seat cushion foam--new? 200 1992

posted by  someone claiming to be Dharvey on  Fri Dec 6 14:19 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I've tried several used seat cushion foams for my 1992, and they're all wallowed out to some degree. Tolerable, but not the way a Volvo seat can be.

About 10 years ago I bought new foam for the driver's seat on my 1980, from a Volvo dealer in Oregon that had good mail-order prices. But it wasn't really very good even new. The upholsterer I took the seat to took one look at the replacement foam and said, this isn't high quality--it won't last. She was right--after a year or so I put the replacement seat cushion on the passenger side and sat on the remaining original one. So I'm not keen on sinking money into any more Volvo dealer foam.

Has anyone bought the IPD seat foam? The price is absurd, but if it is at least solid and durable like the original foam, then maybe there's no alternative.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
