So I am here since I have a way but it isn't great. 

1. Normal lander. 4 legs and it looks like the LEM. There is no compartment like irl so I bolted it onto the side using a decoupler 

Problem with this you need to land on a flat surface and sometimes the decoupler doesn't quite decouple correctly so it is hanging on to the side. Also when it fails it sometimes falls the wrong way and lands upside down. Also the profile of it isn't quite straight so quite awkward to fit in the upper stage.

2. Build the most cheapest one on the surface. 4 wheels seat and a battery. I tried this and been attacked by the kraken. 

3. Send it down on a different lander. Basically replacing the module with a box. 

4. And final way is build it without the chair. Bolt it on the sides so smallest profile and bolt the chair on after.

I'm glad it worked for you, and welcome to the forum. :)
