Yes, it can. However, the foam used in these seats are especially heavy
duty so that it keeps its shape over the life of the seats. Ordinary foam
that you can buy from Target or other retailers is far too soft.
I had my seats reupholstered by a commercial shop and they replaced all the
foam, reconditioned the frames and custom stitched the covering at a
fraction of what I would have paid for the pieces to do it myself.

I was surprised at the cost of foam for seat kits also, as i was for the
seat
springs for tr-3. Can't chunks of foam be purchased and shaved/cut to fit
rather than buying through retailers?
