Foam, cover, or whole thing with pan? The Seat Shop online sells the foam and some covers. Ebay also has some. The new foam is about $150. Your probably better off price wise going to a local upholstery shop. Doubt you will find a used one that the foam and cover are not in poor condition.

I second this. A good upholstery shop will use quality foam to reinforce the worn foam from the factory.

Theseatshop.com -- I installed the drivers cushion, it's better than new. Highly recommended.

You'll need a set of hog ring pliers and about 30 minutes, it's very easy to change the bottom foam on these seats. Hog rings are included with the foam.

If you look around the net there it seems the guys with Nissan 300z's have to do a lot of work on their seats and they have a lot of hog rings. One of the tricks they use is to sub in good quality wire tires for replacement hog rings. I know I have to replace (most likely rebuild) the cushion in mine and I plan on using wire tires verses hog rings.

Hog rings are the proper fastening mechanism. Find me an upholstery shop that uses zip ties. I'll wait right here. . .

They are not listing an 06 xlt. I need a new bottom cushion and cover.

I have found this issue too for my cloth grey STX seats, nobody makes the cloth one. So I have an appointment at a local upholstery shop, he called and confirmed they still make the material which he called "dove grey". We will see how it goes on the 18th. Quoted me $100
