Default XK8 Convertible 1997 - Drivers Seat DEPTH Lowering

Has anyone tried to change the actual DEPTH of the Drivers Seat Cushion in order to give more height clearance for taller persons...?
I think that its been established that its not possible to adjust the actual frame lowering any more than it can be...
I note that the actual seat DEPTH (the thickness of the Foam) is quite large and therefore is it possible to reduce this thickness and recover the seat...
Has anyone tried this or can come up with another solution...?

Reducing the foam in the seat cushions may create new comfort problems that the driver does not currently have, particularly in the derriere, thighs, lower back, and so on....
