Anyone relocate or detach driver seat controls?

I think this is my main source of discomfort from the driver seat, having half my leg resting on this hard plastic box while i drive.

Will detaching / relocating make the right bolster of the seat more pliable / comfortable?
Anyone try this?

Just quickly looked at it and it seems the whole seat would have to be removed to take the controls off, am i correct?

Plus where the fukc would you put them? How is this such a problem that you're willing to delve into this project knowing full well the pain in the assery that it would entail?

So weird..

I mean you can do a seat swap to the fancy bride stuff if you wanna go fancy and whatnot. But TBH relocate? No - change out the seat with something compatible.

Did you read my OP? The first sentence........?

Seems like Nissan got a good deal on these seat controls and bought way too many, what fuktard thought it would be a good place putting them in the bolster making the seat smaller?
On the left side of the seat out of the way was not revolutionary enough i guess.

i already found the thread on lowering the seat to increase headroom (i'm fukn crazy i guess)

No, you're not crazy...I hate the seat control location as well. Don't think they had 6'3" American men in mind when they decided on that seat choice...


Love everything--but that--about this '06 G35 Sedan.
