Seat pad replacement
Ok I read all the blogs about these terrible seats so I'm going to try and have the entire bottom pad redone. I want to try a totally different padding and have it built up very firm. What you guys think?

It would be nice to find a "built" lower cushion with the pad and stitching already done. Then it can be clipped in with the hog rings and be done. I know it's available for Mercedes this way. Has anyone seen a Lexus "kit" like this? I have to think this would be cheaper than a hand built replacement at an auto upholstery shop.

the problem with the LS seats seems to be that the foam collapses over time, or it feels that way, such that there is no give or springiness to the seat.

Seat pad
Here's a update on seat pad. I was unsure about the firmness so I went to walmart and bought a seat cushion with memory foam in it I'm going to try this for a while for comfort and decide on the correct firmness!

I am looking at replacing the front passenger pad before I do my driver's seat to see if helps any. I've come across 2 part numbers online at Lexus South Atlanta. They are:
7151150140
and
7151150160
When I look on mylparts.com the 60 part looks like the standard with a diagram and all, but the 40 part doesn't. any idea what the difference is?

I looked at that page and the proper item seemed to be the: http://mylparts.com/parts/2004/Lexus...&siteid=214992
Cushion Cover with Climate Control for $1006 in various colors. That's way too expensive. I vote for upholstery shops. I'm concerned your pad is just that. A foam pad used inside a seat with one for cooled seats and one for regular seats.
