PLEASE HELP - 14-way seats in my 991 are KILLING my back. I hate driving this car.

I recently bought a 2012.5 991 Carrera S after my 3.2 Carrera was stolen and the seats are so uncomfortable I dread driving the car. I have the 14-way seats and the lumbar support is awful for me. I'm young and in relatively good physical condition and don't have chronic back problems, yet the cockpit stance and seat configuration is vexing at best. I have a 7 speed and the necessity to move my body to throttle, press clutch, and shift required my back to be properly supported, but it clearly isn't.

I was going to take the car to the local Porsche dealer and see if I can find a way to fix this or replace the seats with different porsche seats or aftermarket ones. Any thoughts? I've been through about $500 of lumbar support pillow options and none make a substantial difference. Best I get is a manageable driving experience without too much pain. This is bizarre.
