I believe it`s an original base that`s been utilised and some rather nice, thick seat foam has been used, followed by a custom made cover. Nice job they`ve made of it too, does away with the bum stop which I personally don`t like too much anyway. Another clue to the seat being recoverd and modded is that the rear seat has DEFINATELY got more padding in it too.

the seat has 4NX moulded into the base. the seat cover looks original and untouched even tho the rear has about 50mm more padding than stock and is a very ordinary recover...mike

Well Ritza it`s a nice job but DEFINATELY not standard, there`s no seperate bum stop.
I suspect a reworked foam and a custom made cover.
