Padding for Rear Passenger Seats

    Hi All,

    In my five berth camper, I have belted rear seating for two facing forward (behind a table). The back of the seat (ie where the passengers back rests) is presently solid wood, which I believe would be uncomfortable for a long distance journey. I’m looking to put in some form of padding that would make it more comfortable. I believe this may be tricky to source as it’s pretty much a spare part for a couch/seat.

    If anyone has any suggestions on what to look for and where to get it, I am all ears. (eg is there a product designed for something else that would do the job perfectly).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for all responses.

    I think someone in the upholstery business would be the wat to go. The could cut some foam to size and cover it and tack it on permanently

    yes try the upholstery guys - they have various densities of foam up to one called structural foam which is strong enough to form a seat - you need something like this rather than the very soft mattress foam ("Dunlopillo" - or am I showing my age?!).

    If you are in Cork for instance there's a crowd called Suite Cottage in Carrigaline.

    Another place to try is anyone who re-upholsters boats and yachts - they might be more inclined to do a small job than the guys who are used to doing seriously large jobs for pubs etc.
