I actually think it is mainly sparked by the ingress/egress of the car. Getting in and out is taxing compared to normal cars...

thighs bolsters too tight

I find the seat pretty comfortable except for the narrow thigh bolsters. I'm 6'1" and have large thighs from mountain biking and working out. After experimenting with the many adjustments, I finally found a comfortable position, but my thighs are squeezed against those hard bolsters. I have been thinking about taking the seat apart to see if I can bend the bolsters out 1/2", but have never got around to it. If I could see a good picture of the seat carcass, I'd be able to see if it's even possible.

Had the same issue. Solved the problem by Increasing seat height all the way up and as far back as I could.

Not only does this support the back of your knees better but it also creates less of a drop when you are getting in the car and less of a climb when you are getting out too.

I think the eBay clutch stop helped with this as I am now able to seat farther back.
