For you guys contemplating stuffing your seat a bit more, it is actually quite easy to remove the seat cover. Use needle nose pliers to pull the staples. there is enough spare room in there to put another layer of foam on top of or under the existing foam, so you don't need to cut out the existing foam unless you want to- but cutting existing foam will of course keep the seat lower profile- if you look at my seat, it is 1" taller than Valhalla's. Use any size of foam and trim it like Valhalla did.
Use any good heavy duty stapler with 3/8" staples to re-secure the seat cover to the plastic pan, you can use the old staple holes in the material and seat plastic staple holes as a guide. if you mess up, pull staple and shoot another one.
