Custom Replacement Seat Covers

I was looking to replace my seat on my old bike (1993 CBR1000F) and did not want to spend $250~$500 for Corbin or Sergeant or over $100 for an upholstery shop to do a half assed job. So, I found the link to this site and for about $55.00 I was able to pick the texture and color for my seat. It was made from an exact Honda pattern and when I received it. All I had to do is put it in the dryer in a pillow case on med-heat for about ten minuets lined it up and using a staple gun to install the new seat cover and it about 5 minuets it was done. (of course remove the old seat cover first) I went with the textured Black vinyl and the finished product was top rate! http://www.motorcycleseatcovers.com/index.htm

Inquiring minds want to know....
Did you replace the foam?
What type foam did you use?
Found anyplace to buy memory foam or denser foam than factory for better support (like the Corbin foam)?

TIA

No, it’s just the cover and it’s priced at $55.95 with $5.95 shipping but you use the factory foam. I discovered that even replacing the cover with this higher grade of vinyl did improve the comfort level of the factory seat.
