Default Seat mod question

I had a seat modified by you last year. It was the single layer of memory foam mod, and the seat was cut down and made more narrow also. After puttin' about 15,000 miles on it, the memory foam doesn't seem to feel as comfortable as it used to. I used to be able to go on long trips, and never feel any pain in my butt. Lately, my butts started to hurt. Would the double decker memory foam mod solve this problem? After bringin' my seat to you to have the work done, this seat became the most comfortable seat I've ever sat on. I'd like it to be like that again. Is the pricing on your website the same for seats you've already done before?

I tried modding my stock seat and felt the same as you. Do yourself a huge favour and buy a decent seat. You will never regret it!!

Haven't felt a seat more comfortable than the one they did for me. And when you combine that with the cost, it's really hard to beat.

You probably used Mattress memory foam...waste of time dude and after market seats are still a one size fits all seat we have been getting more after market seats than stocks lately...go figure.
