Sheepskin Seat Covers...anyone have them? I'm wondering if they may reduce the very snug seat bolstering sensation. I have the Sport Seats Plus in my 992 and the upper side bolstering digs in underneath my right shoulder blade while driving and the lower cushion bolstering smashes the family jewels when I struggle to get out. I was not able to try the car prior to purchase. 6"4" and 225 lbs.

Consider doing just the seat inserts; these will address the tight bolster issue by raising the mid part of the seat a bit; https://www.covercraft.com/us/en/pro...nserts.GT-GTCN

Here you go. $85 on Amazon.
Here's a customers complaint that makes it sound like these might just be what you want!
"The issue is that this is a very thick seat cover and does not work well at all in sport bucket seats. The problem is that it lifts you so high that it defeats the purpose of the side bolsters of the sport buckets . . . . "

So much depends on on your actual body shape, but not sure full sheepskin covers would solve your problem because if anything they'd narrow the seat. Maybe only on the squab would lift you and release pressure on your shoulders, would also help you clear the side squab when exiting. Without actually trying or seeing though hard to say. Should mention I am 6'3" and 250lb with the 18-ways, I don't have either issue but it did take me a few days to figure out how to exit cleanly without embarrassing myself ![Smilie](https://rennlist.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)

I agree, but I'm not going to alter my 250 mile car with any significant changes. Just need to be able to drive with a tiny bit of comfort and be able to get out without being neutered!
