Hi, has anyone looked into repositioning the drivers seat. I am a little over 6 ft and find that even in the farthest position back i really could do with it going a further 1-2 " back. :?

wow, you must have long legs lol, im about 6ft 1 ish and thing mine is pretty far back but not all the way and it seems ok, my legs might be bent an bit but im comfy, are your seats manual or electric?? only thing you could do is re-position it but re mounting but you'd have to drill holes and make spaces and the mounds are pressed into the floor

I am 6ft and can agree that the seat doesn't go back enough either. For a car that is so long and big I find it hard to believe. Especially if you sit on the passenger side with that lump in the floor you can't put your legs straight out.

I have no idea how to fix it so no help at all I'm afraid. Taking your shoes off may help a couple of mm's hehehe.

I'm 6ft and have no problems. I've got the electric seats. The passenger hump is unusual but i can stretch my legs out. Mind you I've only been a passenger twice so I could be wrong. Definately no problems with the drivers side though.

None of which helps :crazy:

ok, so i checked on my way home to see how bent my legs were, and they are pretty bent like 30 degrees or something. Basically i sit as far back so that my arm is just very slightly bent (almost locked out straight) when i reach for the top of the steering wheel.
