The seats in my TR4A were not comfortable from the day I bought it in 1985 and remained that way through a couple re-coverings.


A small lumbar pad was always needed.  The problem as I see it is the failure of the back cushion to pivot from the bottom cushion, so it's always too upright.  Backs weren't supposed to be bent so upright.  Especially old ones!


My solution was Miata seats with hinged backrests.  An incredible difference!


Otherwise, the seat frames would have to be cut apart and re-welded at a more comfortable angle.  I suppose the back cushion could be overstuffed at the bottom for greater lumbar support.
