    I bought a 2014 Prius with an upgraded package a year ago. So it has an electrical seat. But I find the electrical seat very uncomfortable because I can't put the back all the way upright like I could on my previous 2009 Prius. Yes, I can raise the seat, but that moves it forward and my legs are long, so I have to constantly lift my foot and it gives me shin pain. I would really like a manual seat. Do those exist for this year of car and can I hire someone to replace it?

    Yes, and Yes... Check junk yards to get used one.
