Default '04 LS430 Drivers Seat Side Bolsters

I guess I have spread out on the bottom more than I thought in my old age because I'm having some problems with the drivers seat side bolsters causing rubbing and discomfort on the side of my leg when I'm in the car for awhile. Has anyone else had the same problem and do the bolsters soften somewhat after a "break in" period. Is there anything that can be done to soften them? I've only had the car for about 2 weeks.

I've had other cars (Audi A6 4.2, Lexus GS 400, etc) and have not had the problem before.

stanatl, I had somewhat the same problem and I found it to be the seat bottom length adjustment(?) I guess that is what it called . I found if you have the seat cushion adjusted to far out it tends to be somewhat uncomfortable. Once I found the perfect position, it has been great.

Thanks for the reply. I've played around with the seat adjustment a little, but i guess I haven't found the right position yet.
