I have a ND 2.0 GT Sport with the lovely beige leather seats. I have previously had two other MX-5’s and have driven to Scotland and back in comfort. After around 50 miles in my 2019 ND I get pains in my thigh but only the right one. Is the squab too thin? Anyone else experienced this and just wondered why only the right thigh.
Have you tried tilting the squab up under your thighs a bit more using the rotary knob on the front corner?
---- EASY EAGLE Car Lumbar Support Cushion ----
We had a Mk2.5 for 17 years and I never had a back problem, but since getting a Mk4 I have been having back problems after about 30 mins.
An earlier thread recommended the above lumbar support which I ordered and had delivered a few weeks ago. Now been on 2 longish trips (80 miles each), and so far I have not had any problems.
By coincidence it matches the black leather seats with red piping!!..double bubble!!..
…NB SWMBO (appols for offending some people by using this phrase), tried it and did not find any improvement as for £28 I was going to get another one for the passenger seat. So far it seems to work fine for me…
This is not a lumbar support problem.
Tried all that with about eight different settings, squab up, down, distance to steering wheel, rake etc. Struggling so far as around 40 minutes or so and the pain starts but only right thigh. Might try a thin cushion to see what happens.
I did 7 hours in two hits in mine the other day without any issues, but I do have Recaros. I guess they’re a straight swap for the standard seats and could be a way forwards.
