C5 Seat Cushion Foam

In the early 1950s, the Chevrolet division of General Motors was experiencing a sales slump. Brand manager Thomas Keating came up with the idea of developing an American version of a sports car that was rapidly gaining popularity in Great Britain. Keating’s vision ultimately led to the birth of the Corvette, which made its debut at the General Motors Motorama in New York City in January 1953. 

The sleek new sports car created enough of a buzz that Chevy committed to a full production run. The first Corvettes were available to the public in June 1953, and they forever altered the American automobile landscape. 

Chevrolet and GM have launched eight Corvette generations in the nearly 70-year history of America’s sports car. The fifth-generation ‘Vette (C5) spanned the 1997-2004 model years and represented a significant departure from its C4 predecessor. Chevy redesigned the vehicle from the ground up. Major changes included the hydroformed box frame that provided an enhanced structural platform and an all-new LS1 engine that delivered a substantial horsepower boost.

The C5 Corvette was available in three body styles. The era began with a Targa-top fastback coupe version in 1997, and a convertible joined the lineup a year later. The 1999 model year featured the unveiling of a fixed-roof coupe (FRC) with a non-removable hardtop.

C5 Seat Cushion Foam for Sale

Is your Corvette’s ride not as comfortable as it used to be? It could be time to replace the seat foam. The foam serves as the cushion base that gives you the support and softness you need during those extended road trips that so many ‘Vette owners love to take. It also provides the seat with its unique shape. 

Installing a new C5 seat cushion will make driving your car even more enjoyable. And when you combine it with upgraded C5 seat covers and upholstery, you can give your vehicle’s interior a fresh, new look. 

What Are the Signs That It’s Time for a Seat Cushion Upgrade?

As with virtually every automobile component, seat foam doesn’t last forever. Age, wear and tear will eventually lead to cushion damage, even if you take excellent care of your ‘Vette. Wear occurs more frequently on the driver’s seat than the passenger seat due to the heavier use. 

The “eyeball test” is one easy way to determine if it’s time for a change. You may notice tears or the presence of foam debris on floor mats. And if you see sagging upholstery, it usually indicates the collapse of the underlying foam cushion. 

The “feel test” is another reliable method for determining seat foam quality. If your seat doesn’t provide the support you’ve grown accustomed to, your foam has probably reached the end of its life span.
