New Seat Padding for My 92?
I seem to have no trouble at all finding new seat covers to redo my worn seats. But I can't find any replacement padding.
I've redone a C4's seats and it was so easy to find new padding, I'm just floored that I can't find new padding for my 3rd gen Camaro.
Has anyone rebuilt a set of 3rd gen seats? Is a padding set available anywhere? If I must, how do I go about making the padding myself?
Thanks so much for any help

Yeah, I've been on the look out for some good ones. But mine aren't really too bad, 92 with 70k, and I doubt I'll find many better. I just really wanted to get some new foam.
Guess I'll be looking into making some bulk padding work. Anyone have any ideas? I know what they have at fabric stores around here and I was wanting more of a foam than a stuffing. I mean, they aren't sofas right?

Well I finally had a bit of luck finding some sites that have what I was looking for. I figured I'd share what I found with everyone, just in case anyone wanted to know.
I found it by looking for mattress pads. Go figure, 5 hours coming up with nothing and it finally hits me. Now if I can just find a way to find companies that carry velour and suede not just vinyl and leather. I guess there aren't alot of cloth lovers out there in the aftermarket but here in Texas I consider it a neccesity, not to mention the superior sound dampening qualities of cloth compared to vinyl and leather. Any help is much appreciated. I'll make sure and post up some pic whenever I get around to the project this summer some time.

http://www.rochfordsupply.com/
http://www.upholster.com/ - lots of great links on this site
http://www.leatherseats.com/
And ofcourse all the great products from out Sponsorers
Now I just need to find some good suppliers for cloth interior fabrics. Hope this isn't just one man's quest annoying everyone
