Wanted: Lateral Support

The lateral support on the seats in my elise is quite lacking and the exige seats don't seem to address this issue either. I've got sparcos in my other car which fit like a glove around my mid section. But I was wondering if it's possible to get an exige seat with beefed up lateral support.

I'd like to keep a lotus seat in there if possible (either from hangar 111, sector 111 or lotus) so no bride, sparco, recaro etc...

Any future options out there?

This isn't a bladder issue.

I don't have the lumbar bladder, and haven't seen it as an option. Is this something lots of other people have?

if there was a factory option, i'm sure lotus would have included it on the 2 eleven. to my eyes, that vehicle is being delivered with the same seats found in an exige, just with a different covering.
