Default suggestion for making 2002 525i sport seat more comfortable

hello,
I just bought a 2002 525i sport. It's an amazing car, but after
driving it for longer than 30 minutes the driver's seat is just
uncomfortable. I'm a bit on the big side (6' 2, 240 lbs). I just
don't like the high sides on the seats. The outside of my thighs get
numb or uncomfortable after a while. I'd love to make the seat flat
somehow, but not sure how to do this.

I'm open to any suggestions! PLEASE!!

Thanks,

Oskar

The sport seats are a popular option. You might want to find someone who
has the standard seats (preferably with lumbar) or the comfort seats who
wants the sports seats and arrange a swap.

I'm sure its possible for a REALLY good upholstery shop to mod your seats,
but I'd make darn sure they were competent.

Post on a BMW Fansite. You will instantly find at least 10 people desperate
to swap seats with you. Everyone wants Sport seats.
