Repaired my driver seat with the "noodles"; left the horse hair pad and put some foam between the pad and the springs, was afraid to loose the shape of the seat when using just the flat foam. Stuffed the bottom with "noodles", it made the seat so firm I almost broke my back when I first jumped in the seat!

Had to take some of the noodles out to make it more comfortable; the seating experience is great, feels like a new Benz.

The only thrown back is it raised the seat an inch, making it a little claustrophobic with the lower roof of the coupe. I feel the head liner touching my hair.

But a great solution, an upholstery guy quoted me $200 to fix both seats...you saved me some money, thanks.

When I went to Toys 'R Us I forgot how the noodles were called, wandering thrue the store I could not find them, asked a store employee if they had the "swimming pool worms", he started to laugh and pointed in the direction of the registers: thousands of noodles were waving at me!
