New seat foam?

So I pulled my seats and carpet out to do some RAAMmat sound deadening and I noticed the foam is completely disintegrating on the driver's seat. There was a pile of crumbling foam under the seat and if you push on the foam bits will just come off in your hand SO I need a new one (the seat has gotten more uncomfortable over the last few years and I guess I know why). I looked around some and OEM for an '02 Sierra was like $150??? Is that normal? or am I missing something?

Any suggestions? Thanks!

A decent upholsterer could construct a foam cushion that could be made up totally to your liking. Harder on the edges, softer in the middle. Even progressive densities could be made. Initial softness with a firmer base. Or whatever combo that suits you.
Pretty typical project for custom Hot Rod seating.
If just the seat was brought to my shop, (No truck!) I'd do a job like that for the same price as a generic cushion.
