The sponge in the seat of my previous Wuling Zhiguang collapsed after sitting for a long time, causing back pain. I’ve replaced it myself a few times. First, you need to remove the seat—usually, there are screws or clips underneath that can be loosened with a wrench or screwdriver. Then, carefully lift the seat cover to expose the old sponge inside. Be careful not to tear the cover, or you’ll have to sew it. After removing the old sponge, measure the dimensions and buy a new one at an auto parts store. Press it firmly into place to avoid gaps. Finally, reinstall the seat. The whole process doesn’t cost much—just a few dozen yuan for the new sponge—and the comfort improves immediately. I recommend regularly checking the seat frame for rust and maintaining it promptly to extend the sponge’s lifespan.

Replacing the seat foam in the Wuling Sunshine is quite easy, and I usually enjoy doing some DIY projects myself. Prepare the necessary tools: screwdrivers, wrenches, and gloves. First, flip the seat up—most have bolts at the base, unscrew them to disassemble the seat. Remove the seat cover and carefully peel off the old foam. If it’s moldy or cracked, it’s better to replace it. When buying new foam, avoid choosing overly firm options—opt for something more comfortable. When installing the new foam, make sure it’s aligned and flattened properly. Finally, reassemble the seat and test it out—it should feel soft and comfortable, saving money while being practical. Regularly cleaning the seat covers to prevent moisture buildup can help extend the foam’s lifespan. If you lack the tools, asking a fellow car enthusiast for help can speed things up.

I have tried replacing the seat foam in the Wuling Sunshine. Remove the seat bolts, take off the seat cover, and remove the old foam. After installing the new foam, reassemble the seat.

My Wuling Zhiguang's seat foam has flattened after long use, and the kids complain about discomfort from the bumps during rides. I just replaced it myself: first, remove the seat, loosen the clips with a screwdriver, lift the seat cover, and remove the old foam; then, replace it with new foam, press it into place, and reassemble. Buying a cheaper model of new foam online works just fine, costing less than a hundred yuan. After the replacement, my legs don't ache during long drives, and the kids sit more securely. It's also a good idea to check and clean the seat cover to prevent water accumulation and avoid the foam from developing odors. Regular maintenance like this saves money and improves comfort, especially practical for families with children and elderly.

Replacing the Wuling Zhiguang seat cushion is quick and easy. I recommend first disconnecting the battery cable to prevent short circuits, then using tools to remove the seat bolts. When removing the old cushion, apply some lubricant to make it easier to peel off, and ensure the frame is rust-free before installing the new cushion. Purchase the correct size and avoid cheap alternatives. After installation, press it firmly and test the seating comfort. The whole process can be completed within half an hour, significantly improving comfort. Afterwards, clean the seats regularly to prevent cushion sagging and reduce maintenance costs.
