  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 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'.

    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
