We're all different but I find the GS seats quite uncomfortable for my 6"4 frame. For me they are not supportive enough. I've found Volvo seats much better for me..
Others on this forum have put spacers under the front of the seat base to raise that up which I will have a go at but wondered if any other seats are a straight swap ?D4

You're not the first to find the GS seats uncomfortable. I don't know if you can fit D3 seats in there. Plus you have to think about the airbags.

I'm 6'4", and the D4 XS seats are far more comfortable than the D3 seats.

I have 2010 D4 HSE and I find the seats a bit uncomfortable. I have longish legs and the seat portion is too short to support my thighs properly which causes some discomfort on longer drives. Biggest problem is that the bump for a thigh support is not at the right location, it should be way more forward. To overcome that I need to tilt the seat portion a bit forward which makes me feel like sliding off during braking. I'm a bit surprised there is no adjustable thigh support on HSE seats.
Backrest is fine, especially since there are plenty of adjustment options for the support.
So any idea for suitable replacement? Would any of the RR or RRS seats fit?
