Sorry in advance op for hijacking. But I actually just copied you virologist and did that to my seat. Now my knees/high shin hits the dash. The only way to avoid this is to move the seat back until I can't reach the pedals comfortably.vibrologist wrote:Those seats look really sharp.
As far as ergonomics go I am a bit skeptic. These seats are lower to the floor than the original seats. That will make the position to the pedals and steering wheel even worse than stock. I had to raise the front of my stock seat to fix that problem.
