Replacing Foam on RS200 Seat?

[beaks]

Hi folks,

Although the seat looks fine, there's a clear difference between my driver and passenger seat 'feel'...

Clearly the foam is a bit tired so I'd like to get it replaced.

Does anyone know how much it's likely to cost for this to be done? I live in Warwickshire if anyone knows anybody local.

They're standard RS200 seats, not the Recaro's.

Cheers !!

I had my van seat done by a local trimming company.
I bought the seat foam for £68 on eBay (came in a Renault box though?) and took it to a local place called Motortrim. He sent me for breakfast and when I went back an hour later it was done. Charged me £40.

I did it on my van mate, so the part number wouldn’t be much use to you. 😂

The best think to do is grab a good condition passenger seat and use the foam from that, they're usually in far better nick

that's a good shout. being a fussy f'cker I'd still like to buy new, but probably find it's stupid money even if you can still buy them!

cheers bud.

Last time I looked I couldn't find one so ended up just using a passenger foam to re-do the bolster on a drivers seat

You can also just glue and shape some new foam in place too
