Subject:Lumbar pads? Headrest pads?

Hi all,

I've recently discovered that my posture and back are much better when I
stuff a properly-shaped soft object between my lower back and the Westy's
seat. Has anyone been successful in adding a section of fitted foam into the
Vanagon's seat, under the covering? If so, what foam density works the best?

Another thing I actually remember seeing somewhere, maybe in a German ad: A
slip-on cover with an attached pad for the headrest / restraint. Having both
integrated into the driver's seat would certainly make those cross-country
jaunts a bit more comfortable, if not safer. Thanks in advance for any
input.
