Hi all,

I've recently discovered that my posture and back are much better when I stuff a properly-shaped soft object between my lower back and the Westy's seat. Has anyone been successful in adding a section of fitted foam into the Vanagon's seat, under the covering? If so, what foam density works the best?

Another thing I actually remember seeing somewhere, maybe in a German ad: A slip-on cover with an attached pad for the headrest / restraint. Having both integrated into the driver's seat would certainly make those cross-country jaunts a bit more comfortable, if not safer. Thanks in advance for any input.
