G'day from Australia,

My wife and I recently bought an 03 Tibby V6 (traded up from a Mazda MX6) and we are really happy with the car. However, there is one comfort issue that I hoped someone in the forum might be able to give us some advice on.
We find that the support/strength bars that sit inside the wings of the front seats dig into our outer thighs and make even a relatively short trip rather uncomfortable. The dealer we purchased the car from (to his credit) paid for a motor trimmer to put extra padding inside the wings, but as the sports seats are already rather narrow, this mod has made the seating even tighter and, if anything, actually increased the discomfort factor.
If we take out the additional padding we just go back to original problem - so we would welcome any thoughts you may have on how to solve this issue.
Thanks, in advance for your help.

Rod.

Is yours the top of the line model? because personally I think the SE V6 (top end model here in the US)'s seats are rather comfortable, and you can think about switching to those if yours isn't.

I'm not sure what model it is - but I'll check it out and look at that possibility.
Thanks for your reply.
