Too much bolster / thigh support drivers seat MK7,5

[Vaal]

Hi,

I don't have a Fiesta yet, but might get one. The biggest hurdle currently is the driver's seat. The bolster / leg support is too much for me.

I am quite tall (195cm) and have long (upper) legs. So I am sitting with my legs "opened up" a little, which causes the leg support to press into my thighs and making my legs sleep.

I've talked to a car upholstery firm and they think they can do something about it (200-225 euros).

This is assuming that the clothing of the chairs can be removed/opened up and it's not a "molded" one piece cushion/seat.

Any other suggestions? I've noticed the Ford Focus seats are a lot better suited to me, might these fit into a Fiesta?

Should I get some modification to move the chair backwards a little? I am worried this would make be move too far away from the steering wheel.

Cheers,

I take it you know that the steering wheel is adjustable.
