Just sharing in case someone is on the fence or curious about doing their seat.

I have an 04 GMC Yukon

My bottom portion of the drivers seat was shot, foam and all. So i ordered some stuff from the SEAT SHOP (Dot com) and believe it or not my Yukon doesn't have heated seats... So while I had my seat apart I added them.

Heres what I ordered for reference:

This little upholstery job is very easy, plus if you need help the Seat Shop has great helpful videos

Pulled seat out. removed the bottom, stripped it, added all the new stuff and here is the before and after.

Word. Looks great. I have been wanting to do mine over. It's just the 400 that's hard to swallow.

Yeah, I actually forked out $350 total.... Little high but man sitting in the redone seat is like driving a brand new Yukon, the Seat Shop Durofoam is awesome! It feels better than OEM. If your foam is good though that knocks off $120


Ill help anyone in my area do this if needed

Very mice, I am sure this makes a HUGE difference driving your truck again.

Well done!!!!

Thanks! It made a HUGE difference!

What's great is the rest f the seats look brand new. Bought Yukon off original owner.... Nobody used the other seats or I should say.... Rarely.
