Had the work done yesterday. Seat is much firmer now and feels really good. Only driven short distances up to now so I will have to wait for my next long drive to know if it really has helped.

They did a good job, everything still works and the seat cooling actually works better now (more air coming through).

Up till now I am very pleased for Euro 300. I will let you know after I give it a real test.

Thanks for posting your initial impression on the results. Much appreciated.

I have an issue with not only a collapsed driver's side seat bottom cushion, but worn and torn perforated leather on the seat back as well. The non-perforated leather also is beginning to show signs of wear. Anyone have any suggestions for repair or, possibly, replacement of the upholstery? I had a Jaguar XJ40 a few years back and there were a number of vendors of replacement leather upholstery for Jaguars. Anyone hear of similar for Lexus LS 430's?

Wondering if the OP went with the OEM or custom foam and how it turned out. My 05 LS is in need of new seat bottom cushioning.
