How much was it to do it?
Was it hard to get the right size figured out?

I just took a tape measure to my old cushions and to get the basic length and width. I knew I wanted a deeper, higher quality foam. I tired to go to the company I used when I had a custom made bed for my toy hauler but they were out of the foam I wanted. So I found a company someone else on the boards used and they had it to me with in a week for 1/2 what the first company tried to charge. I went with 6 inch foam with an idl of 34 and had it Dacron wrapped. That too, was at my house with in a week. Took a bit to get the brackets and get the back rest to sit correctly. the factory locations would no longer work as the new was 50% more foam then stock but it was well worth it. Entire thing took less then 3 hours from pulling the old cushions out to having a nap on my new bed/couch.
