My original seat cushion was SHOT!  I've been wanting to replace this for some time, but I hesitated dropping the money on a cushion.  This was very simple to do and it only took 45 minutes from start to finish.

The bottom is easily removed with a 10mm socket, there are 4 bolts that are easily accessed from underneath the seat.

 

With the seat removed, the cover was removed by pulling the clips attached to the fabric that was secured to the metal frame.  The fabric cover is held onto the cushion with 2 Velcro strips and 3 hog rings.  The replacement cushion came with replacement hog rings.  The 4th picture is of the rings, sorry, I didn't realize it was so out of focus. 

 

The hardest part was getting the clips back onto the metal frame.  The new cushion is stiffer and it takes a little more to compress it.  After that, it was just installing it in the truck with the 4 bolts. 

 

It is different sitting in the drivers seat now, defiantly a recommended upgrade.

Pic of old foam and cover, and new genos cover with us auto foam installed.  Nobody had my dark agate factory cover or I probably would have sprung for it.  Still would if I found one but I'm not to ocd on cosmetics.  Shipping kinda killed the genos foam for me.  The cover seems real durable and will probably last two foam cushions lol.  Time will tell.
