My 2003 touring seats bug me on long drives. The stupidly placed power controls cut into my right thigh, and the seat also puts pressure on my right hipbone area after an hour or two.

Not too bad, but I've had better seats in other cars.

I'm 6'1", 188, and have a 34" inseam if that tells you anything. I'm not fat, but the hip thing makes me wonder what it would be like if I was.

I have the same problem except I have an 03 touring. How tall are you? I honestly feel that the stock seats are not ergonomicaly designed but maybe it's not comfortable beacuse I am short (5' 4"). Lumbar support is nonexistant no matter how hard I try to get comfortable in the seat.

i have the same problem, i wondered if i was the only one. my leg kills me after a while. i think i have it too far over to the left and its cutting circulation off on the side of the seat. i really dont know exactly what it is, but i wish someone would find out..lol.

it drives me nuts

It's not my wallet, I never drive with it in my back pocket. I tried lowering my seat to see if that helps. I may have had the front raised too high.

Those nights where you get drunk and pass out at the club, then wake up the next morning to find yourself mysteriously laying on the sidewalk. Cut them out. Those can be a doozy on your *** when a gay bum finds you. It's not the seats. JK lol.

That used to happen when I rode with my wallet in my back pocket and rode with the seat level too low. I raised the front of my seat to hold my leg up and adjusted where my heel was during long drives and put my wallet in the cubby hole for long drives.

I use to have the same exact problem. I use to complain a lot as well. .. one simple solution, put your wallet somewhere else than in your pocket. I put mine where the navi would go, and no problems getting anywhere for however long.
