    i found my 2014 TRD seats too soft with little support for my lower back. I'm 6'4" 180 lbs. And I find the Sport style seats put pressure on my legs and hips. I took my truck to an upholstery shop and they rebuilt my drivers seat for $80. They added firm foam to the seat bottom and back and reinforced / retied the springs. Now the seat is 99% perfect. This was a perfect solution to my problems with my seat at what I think was a reasonable cost.

    Umm When did people start thinking headrests were for resting your head. Research will show you that the ONLY purpose for the headrest is to keep your head from snapping backwards in a rear end collision. If you are resting your head on it while driving then you are sitting wrong.

    if there is one more argumentative post in this thread, the member being a dick is getting a warning, and this thread is being shut down. Seating is personal, and not everyones ass/head fits the same as another persons.

    I find the seats uncomfortable as well.

    In the 6-speed Taco I have no support for my knees. I need to sit close enough to use the clutch but that causes my legs to be at an angle that doesn't support them.

    I've been looking for a thread like this for a while. For me, it almost seems like the side bolsters are too firm? I don't really know how to describe it but it's like the side bolsters are jabbing up and in right below the rib cage. I was going to reach out to a few upholstery shops to see if they can make those 'softer' but before I do, does that sound like something that seat covers would help with? I wouldn't have thought so but it sounds like there are a few guys recommending that here.
    Thanks,
    David
