Love it. I'm tall and need to have this done to my seat.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Scott, Yep, your going to love it! Please keep liking and watching!

[@PhillipHall01]

The old piece of carpet on the table for spraying glue is a good idea! Thanks I learn sometime new in every one of your videos! Phillip Hall

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Phillip, I love hearing good news like this! Maybe we can make this life a little better and easier. Please keep liking and watching!

[@peglegtoo]

Lots of great tips here. Thanks as always though I do wish you had showed all the steps especially making the new pattern. I am sure it would be a ton of extra time for you so I appreciate what you were able to share. I am adding foam to my own Harley seat (not due to height, do to it being hard as a rock).

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Pegleg, You are so welcome! I have several other seat pattern videos to choose from. If the foam is very hard for you, you might think about removing some of the hard foam and replacing it with a medium-density foam instead. Please keep liking and watching!

[@T1MBO95]

Excellent video! You're obviously extremely talented, so much info and knowledge!

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Thank you for all the kind words. I am so grateful!

[@deltajohnny]

Great video! 👏👏👏 I'm also tall and I need to raise all my motorcycles' and scooters' seats, and what I do is to remove the foam and upholstery, store it, and make a new foam and upholstery, so that I can reinstall the original parts when I sell my motorcycle, as most people prefer to have the motorcycle as it came from the factory 😉 Thank you very much for the tips and the video 👏👏

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hi Delta! Great idea! When I remove foam for a customer, I give it back to them just in case for later. Please keep watching!

[@orangiekins8411]

Enjoy videos. I redid my son's Honda and made it a cafe rider seat with gel inserts. For my 1st time it came out great. Now I need to make the back seat wider for me because the narrower seat hurts after a long ride. 1500 miles on the back was a killer.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Orangie, You are so welcome! I love hearing good news like your son's seat. You need to take care of your bottom! Thanks for watching!

I did a 4 wheeler seat this week. I wish you could of showed sewing it back together. But Hey , I still loved it !! Ed

Hi Eddie, I have many similar videos showing sewing. Please keep liking and watching!

[@johnniek8845]

Hey Buddy, Great video, thanks again for sharing the knowledge. I gotta tell ya though, that box cutter knife looks like it came straight outta a horror movie, keep up the good work.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Thank you so much! Now I guess this will be known as the Spooky box cutter.

[@jdimeo1966]

Dang, so many tips in this video. Gluing foam together (what to glue and what not to glue). Keeping panels tied together for reassembly. Serrated box cutter. Now I need to go buy one of those disposable box cutters. :-) I assume the seam allowance for the motorcycle seat is 1/4", what do you use for the seam allowance on auto upholstery?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Thanks for noticeing! I keep my seams 1/4". 3/8", 5/16". There will always be some variation as we are only human...

[@alexandralarose5441]

Where buy the grey and black foam Your product is great!

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Thank you so much! I order foam and other materials from Keyston Bros. They have multiple locations around the US. Subscribe and like!

[@thedlc7784]

not related to this video directly, but do you think if I ordered custom seat covers that fit my vehicle. could I also DIY new seat foam? I got a reupholstery quote and it was 1800 dollars for 2 seats… I cannot spend that much.

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

I do think you can do it yourself! Give it a try!

[@thedlc7784]

@@oldschoolautoupholstery Hi, i’m about to order the seat covers that are custom fitted to my car. Do you think any add ons are worth the money? such as piping line, perforated insert, diamond stitch?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

@@thedlc7784 Definitely worth the money if that is what you want. Go for it!

[@archie1230]

Great vid, thank you. What’s the thickness of the scrim you use to cover the seat?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Archie, Thank you so much for saying so! 1/4" scrim or 1/2" scrim can be used. Please keep liking and watching!

[@dmitrisafonov6976]

Great video, but wouldn't this foam shrink under the weight of the rider down to 1" if not less?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Dmi, You are right about the foam crushing, but the added foam does raise the rider. Please keep liking and watching!

[@LarryI7498]

Sweet but I can't do that? Can I send you my seat?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

I get that a lot. What I usually tell them is to check the shipping cost both ways before they decide as shipping cost have gotten expensive. Then I advise them to go local to get it done.

[@LarryI7498]

@@oldschoolautoupholstery thanks I appreciate the advice

[@ehrend2010]

What does something like this $ run for ?

[@oldschoolautoupholstery]

Hello Ed, That depends tottlay on the person doing the work, their skill level, materials chosen and the design. As you can see there are a lot of variables. Thanks for watching!
