Interesting find on eBay... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...QrdZ1Looks like someone took one of those gel-filled mouse pads and stuck it on the side of the console. Good idea if you ask me, I know my knees gets sore after a long drive from sitting on the hard plastic.

With my seat adjusted properly, my left elbow does not rest in the left indentation, it hits the back portion of the indentation.Any thoughts, how bout butchering it so the elbow can fit.Has anyone addressed this?

This is my $6.99 knee pad. I was shopping at CompUSA and saw this. Works great.

Sometimes on long trip I find it comfortable to remove the floor mat and my shoes so my heel is lower. I also think about taking a hammer to the floor pan to drop it about an inch. I'm 6-2 and find the seat postion just a little off which hurts my right knee.I also kick myself for not getting the full package with cruise control Kick, kick kick.

Damn, thats a good idea. I usually end up balling up a bandana and wedging it between my knee and the console. I think I will look for a mouse pad somewhere and glue it on.
