I removed the green layer and this is the seat afterwards. You can see some of the green foam stuck to the oem foam so I used rough sand paper to smooth it down.

To recover the seat you will need a staple gun. On the advice of Dave I purchased an Arrow JT 21CM from Ace Hardware. You will also need the 1/4 inch or 6mm staples.
To begin stretch the cover over the front and back of the seat. I bought my cover from TIMS.
Put a few staples in the front and then turn the seat over to see if you have the cover centered. If not pry the staples off and try again. It took me 3 attempts to get this right. Put the effort in here otherwise your cover will be off center and look rubbish.

Now work from the front of the seat and pull the cover evenly each side and staple every 2 inches. You have to pull quite hard. Use a hair dryer to heat the cover to make it more pliable. Again, flip the seat and see if the cover is centered. If not pry out the staples and do it again.

Keep working towards the back of the seat stapling every 2 inches. I found I had to remove staples on several occasions to center the cover or to tighten it.
Once it is all on and a tight, fill in the gaps between the staples and this is what it will look like.

Refit the rear cowl and here's your new seat.
