    I did it by mocking it up with card board. I could be way off but I belive I started at 11" by 13" then it depends on where you are mounting it. My seat fits me fine, but it could be mounted an inch further back to make a little more confort.

    Hasersys hit it on the head. Thats the best way to do it.

    Well wnt for a 300 mile ride and that seat killed me, so i started on a new seat. this time, I'm cutting up the stock seat and plan to add 3/4gel in it.
