        i have managed to srtip down part of the base, enough to expose the metal for welding without settting the foam on fire, lol
        i have read on another forum that you can buy the foam inserts from audi, as for the fabric, i would conact an upholsterer (spelling??) as i think it would be a tricky diy job

          IIRC you can still get the seat base foam off the dealer but its not cheap - or find a decent condition passenger seat thats not worn out and rob the foam and/or material off it



          EDIT: seat base foam is 8A0 881 361 B

            That's a top tip that one, done it myself a couple of times. Same applies to the seat backs.
