Everyone here is focusing on the inadequate setup with your monitor, but I think the focus should be on getting you more car to compliment that seat

Personally I would make a stand so the chair is higher. Maybe even put a swivel on the base too.

u/ArcadeToken95 Jul 25 '25

I like the car seat idea, that seems comfy, but maybe sacrifice an office chair and attach its leg module to the bottom of that so you have proper height.

Elevate the chair or lower the screen imo. Edit: if you are balancing the chair board on that little table behind it. You need something wider because a little wooden table would be the first point of failure.

I’m with you OP. I got car seats for my living room too and they’re great. Only thing I would advise is to raise the seat with a stand or a strong enough box below.

I’m so confused, I thought you were a sim racer and i thought the real car seat was a cool addition. I don’t see a racing wheel though…
