I'm a little late in joining the discussion, but thought I'd throw out a couple thoughts. One is, if you plan to do any driving time I think it's best to spend some "butt" time in the seat. Each of us has back issues (anywhere from none to oh-my-God), and no two people will feel the seat the same. As an example though I agree with Rod on the Tea's seat appearance, some folks like it. That's a matter of taste. What really killed it for me though was I spent about a 1/2 hour sitting in one and my back didn't like that bolster configuration.
One suggestion on the foam thing which ties in with the above. First the advantage to the WG or Glide seats is your upholsterer can tailor the foam shape to work with you. Second, for similar reasons, most upholsterers don't like the factory supplied foam from Glide, mainly because they end up having to modifiy it so much to fit the owners final desires. They feel they could have gotten the job done quicker/better starting from scratch. Since WG seems to be cloning their business after Glide, it could be the same for them. If you know who you're going to have do your upholstery you might ask them first how they like to do that part of the job before assuming and spending money on foam that won't get the job done.Last edited by Bob Parmenter; 01-11-2006 at 05:59 AM.

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
