Any idea how this can be changed or will it need a new seat base?
I'm pretty sure the element is not replacable by mortal man. If you can find a matching seat cushion at a salvage yard, you should be in luck. If the element is available from the dealer, you might be able to find an upholstery shop to swap it out.
Good luck.
