Front seats

Is it just me, or do the front seats suffer from a serious lack of lateral support?  I love the heating, adjustable back lumbar, my wife loves the massage features, and the cooling is a "meh" item.  With these being partial leather, they don't get too hot to sit on, IMO.

When driving, I find myself having to use my left knee braced on the door and hanging onto the steering wheel in order to keep myself seated.  I really wish Ford had some kind of adjustable side bolsters, or just overall a slightly better seat.

What are the aftermarket options like, has anyone looked into it?  It would be nice to get a better bolstered seat, and then stuff in all the massaging, heating, and cooling elements.
 
I don't have any issues at all but I am 6 feet and 270lbs so I tend to fill that driver area quite easily ... heavily bolstered seats are not my friend.

Ditto, I love the seats being a bigger guy too.  They aren't race seats by any means but very comfortable.  For what 99% of people will do with these cars, the stock ones are just fine. 
 
I'm 6'4 and 260lbs.  I really enjoyed the partial leather Recaro's that I had in my 2013 Focus ST.  I did a couple 1300 mile trips in that, with no seating discomfort.
