Extra seat padding - with pics

[rs32]

Wanted to try something to improve the lumbar and shoulder support for the front seats. At 6' 3"+ I find my shoulders get pushed forward slightly, putting strain on my neck. Not a complete nightmare but could be a problem for 2+ hour journeys.

What was needed was more lumbar support, with additional padding for the middle/upper back to get the shoulders straighter.

So I tried something.

Original Seat



Move OEM pad to upper section



Take some central heating pipe wrap. Notice how I am saving energy by using this.



Cut one piece to size



Then another piece



Replace seat section

Comparison before/after



Seems to have worked pretty well, will do the same for the passenger seat if it's better during use !
