Can you suggest mods to the seat to handle this.
Thanks

My sympathies. As one that had to undergo surgery for the same issue, I fully understand your situation.

Get out of low-slung cars, get yourself an SUV or MUV that gives a much more upright stance. If you drive primarily in the city, get an Innova.

Dump the Baleno - fast. It may sound cruel, but your back is more important.
