I had forgotten about Holly and Wiz, but I talked with Dave DeNuzzo (Crazy Red) 
twice in the past few years.  Once when I found the last remaining titanium 
Voodoo Knob and Brake Handle set for sale anywhere for my Vivid and again last 
year (?) when I tracked down Bonnie Lutz to confirm that rumors of her demise 
had been greatly exaggerated.

Holly? Wait, who was she with?  Was it the miata shop out of florida that went 
belly up?

Katzkins and Crazy Red .. have not heard those names in a long time.   Wonder 
if Holly is still around?  :)

Katzkins are really well made. I think Crazy Red sells them.

Steven (Ken, Brad, Etc) - Thanks!  Now all I need is a good replacement seat 
cover and I am off to sculpting!  Looks like there are a few out there but it’s 
hard to tell which ones are “quality”.  Any experience on that front is 
appreciated.

... And for the really custom foamectomy follow the breadknife with the belt 
sander. I put 50 grit on my belt sander. It makes it easy to sculpt the foam to 
a nice cushy shape.

You can do a foamectomy on them on 96/97's. 

 

Remove the seat, loosen the seat bottom cover from the rear.  Use a breadknife 
to cut the bottom of the foam that sits in the dished out seat pan. Then put it 
back together.

I think that only works to '94. The 95 and up cars had a laminated seat foam 
that makes this much more difficult. Or maybe it was the '96 cars that had 
those s eats... 

I wrote one of the articles on Miata.net on removing seat foam for taller 
drivers.

Unless you're prepared to go with a racing seat (and the attending reduction of 
comfort), foamectomy is the way to go. To do this, you remove the cover to the 
seat, remove some seat foam, and put the seat cover back on. 

 

I've done this to the seat in my '94. I'm about 1.5 inches lower than stock. 
And it's comfy.  Search miata.net for 'foamecto my'.

Subject: Miata Seat

 

Hopefully this is an acceptable place to ask this question – I am lo oking at 
swapping out my driver seat and want to find a seat for my 95, that will allow 
me to sit lower in the car (I hit my head on the hard top) and allows for the 
seat to be adjusted for a smaller driver (not fixed to the floor).  
Suggestions?  

 

Thanks,

Cameron
