Thailand has the best coconuts.

Grab a memory foam mattress topper and stick some memory foam in there.

So clearly there's no shortage of foam/coconut preferences. Is it just me, or is the foam more expensive than the WW coconut seats? Not sure how that makes any sense.

wcfvw69 you're one of the few people who have posted that they did not like coconut. Good to know.

For clarity, only in the bus. They are fine in the bugs. I don't think the bus seats in 1970 were a very good design for comfort or ergonomics.

Ok, so maybe you're not a fan of bus seats in general? Or are they better with foam?

My wife uses pieces of carpet the replace the fibers, seems to work very well.


She must have done the seats in my van. I just ripped them apart and there was carpet in there . I didnt have any luck finding the horse hair or coconut stuff so I will be using high quality foam from the fabric store.
