Recaro seat fix

The foam on my driver seat at the bottom right is shot. Found the part on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....=STRK:MEWAX:IT ........ Wondering if any one has a step by step guide to change the foam over. Found a couple through google. But don't feel explained probly. Or maybe even if you guys know a place in sydney that repair recaro's.. Thanks guys

This is the instruction the seller gave me. Very differ then the other site!

RECARO Bolster Foam

FITTING INSTRUCTIONS – part numbers 562719/462719

General Note:

It is possible to replace the door side foam without taking the seat out of the vehicle however it is less awkward if the seat is removed completely.

* The bolster cover is held in position by small hooks on the seat frame that hold the edge of the cover.

* Start by carefully levering the front edge of the bolster cover from the retaining hooks on the underside of the frame and similarly to the hooks on the inside of the frame between the bolster and centre cushion.

* Continue to undo the bolster cover to about 2/3rds of the way towards the back and roll it back to expose the foam. This should be just about enough to pull the old foam out from the frame.

* Position the new foam in place and carefully roll the cover back into position. The cover may need to be massaged a little to remove any creases and to ensure it is positioned correctly.

* Attach the cover to the hooks on the frame starting at the FRONT and work your way back.
