Been having issues with play in my driver's seat. seems to have some movement back and forth. everything appears tight. Any recommendations for aftermarket seats? I guess I could try to warranty it, but if it's already worn out at 30k miles might as well put something more solid in.

You might have to take it to an upholstery shop. I have the same issue and it's annoying. An upholstery told me they could fix it and I forgot what was the cause.

Are you talking about the seat back having some play? You can try popping the side trim panels off and tightening the main center bolt, usually a T40-T50. That MIGHT be the issue, or the springs are worn

Slide the seat all the way forward
