Question knee door rest/support

i'm wondering if anyone can help please.

in my old classic, I found the seats a nice place to be, but in my jdm bug, after a few miles, i find that the base seat bolster really jabs into my right let.

I have tried my seat in lots of different positions, but with no luck.

When sitting, if I have my right leg up in a straight line to the pedal (so my heel is 6 o'clock and my toe is in the 12 o'clock way) then it is fine, but my driving style is to have my foot pointing to the right (heel at 6, toes at 2-3).

This is when the bolster jabs into my leg.

The only way I have found that overcomes this is to have something between the door and my right knee, so it rests on that, and not my leg on the bolster.

so has anyone had this before with there seats, or has fitted a knee rest?

thanks
ian

Got the same problem with an Astra SRi.

I have seen a few things from the usa and one for the mr2 or something from TRd, but apart from that, nothing.

could be a opening in the market for a adjustable version?
