Waaaay long time ago one of my school friends was both a videogame junkie and car guy. This was before ‘gaming chairs’ were really a thing, but his solution was to hit a scrap yard and salvage the most comfortable seat he could find from a junked car. He mounted that onto an office chair swivel base.
To date, the most comfortable “gaming” / office chair my butt has ever had the privilege to occupy.
I have no idea what a car seat would cost from a scrap yard, but if your the tinkery type and looking for a new project…
I’ve been thinking about doing this because I have a herniated lumbar disk and every seat hurts except the seat in my truck. Hopefully this it a temporary situation but it is insanely comfortable, maybe worth it.

I got a brand new car seat for about €150 a month ago, straight off ebay
