You can get these things for an absolute fraction of the cost of a Buttkicker (about 40 euros), they are designed for home cinema and cabriolet cars. I will simply screw it underneath my chair (it has a wood base).

I'll let you know how I get on when I get round to it but I have other higher priority things on the project list at the moment. I have a feeling it will have very near results for a fraction of the cost.
It also seems the Aura Bass Shaker is another popular alternative.

Cheers

I have a couple of the old Aura Bass shakers, I picked up a vest and a cusion for a couple of dollars at a secondhand store, they are to uncomfortable in the vest and cusion, so my plan was to take them out and bolt them to my seat, glad to see it should work.
