Default Seat Padding

Does anyone know of a good way to pad the seat better. I have a ultra Classic and the wife back side does not have much padding on it LOL. I see some Gel pads to get but I would like some input please.

I got an AirHawk pad for my fiancee when I got my RGS last year. Worked great for her until I got a touring seat.

I bought a sheep skin and love it. Do some research as they work great.

No I just got a seat from an Ultra, but she loves it as is. I plan on sending it in to have it reworked a little, and add heat.

I thought I saw some mixed reviews lately about Mean City Cycles, specifically regarding working on the 2014 and up SGS/RGS stock seats.

Have any of you had work done by MCC on these seats...and if so, what specifically did you have done? I would like to get better padding, but also maybe lowered a little...
