Default Butt numb in cgt seats!

Anyone experiment with aftermarket seat cushions/lumbar support for the cgt seats? Looks like the alcantera covers come off the cushion itself.

I'm noticing longer rides in the cgt seats are getting more uncomfortable the older I get. Surely someone out there experienced similar numb butt problem??!!

Adrenaline pumps not working properly. Adjust driving speeds to factor x3.

Fair points.

There must be more old farts over in 997 forum. I got a novel full of ideas for how to make the seats more comfortable.

If one were so inclined I'm sure they could take the seat to a specialist who could add more padding?

I've a near new set of gt3 seats sitting in the garage I'd be happy to swap :-)

Try getting some memory foam behind the cushion

There are memory foam mattress toppers. You could always buy one and cut it to the size needed. They come in different thicknesses from 1" to 6", maybe more. It's worth a try. If you get the thin one, you can always double or triple it up.

If all fails, you might want to consider plastic surgery. To be exact, butt implants.
