Default seat ?

I am talking to Mean City Cycles about modifying my 2016 street glide seat. They are recommending to do memory foam in the drivers area and the wide single layer in the passenger area. Sounds like it should work out great but was wondering if anyone could post pictures of their street glide seat after having similar mods done?

I'm on their schedule to have mine done next month as a ride in. Currently have the Mustang wide tripper solo. Hoping the memory foam will help!

What I need is a seat that the riders seat is in the same position as the stock street glide or maybe an inch forward with a back rest. The passenger area needs to be firm like a corbin dual touring seat and as low as possible. My wife is the same height as me and does not like sitting high above me on the back of the bike. We both realize she has to sit higher but want to keep it to a minimum.

In Colorado we have a company called Bitchin Stichen that only does motorcycle seats - it's the best way to go, you bring him your bike & seat and he will tweak it to your personal needs.
Not sure how close or good this guy is out by you, but this is what I would recommend a shop like this
