Accord EX 03

Great car but I am having a problem with of all things, the driver's seat.
My hips in particular my right hip presses against the side bolster of the
seat and after an hour of driving I have to stop and walk off the hip
discomfit. Has anyone found this problem? If so have you done anything like
replace the seat or change it in some way to relieve the pressure on your
hips? Please don't tell me I may be too fat for the seat, I haven't had this
problem in any other auto seat and I have had a few other autos.

few other autos.

Shorter drives? ;^)

 

I'd try sitting on a pillow. I'm guessing the side bolster's on that
seat are high compared to the part where your rear end goes, so putting
a pillow under your rear would let your hips sit higher on the side
bolsters, thus reducing pressure on them.

Hope this helps.

BoB,
Visit a auto supply store--the larger the better--and ask if they have for
sale any items that can be placed on the seat. Check all of those items
and buy whatever they have for sale that could solve your problem. One
other option would be to buy a different seat but that would be expensive
and might not even solve your problem.

 

go to a shop that does upholster work. They can do wonders with auto seats.
