      Need more leg room

      Hello,
      Here's a weird question? Has anyone known anybody to mod the front driver's seat so it will go back father. I'm only 5'10" but I have longer legs. I need more leg room. I considered removing the seat and somehow remounting the rails.

      I've done it on other cars. There are a few ways to do it, but I have not looked under the seat aside from getting things off the floor.

      I would love to hear an answer for this one. Especially if its something simple as relocating some bolt placement or something

      if there is a bolt pattern holding the seats to the track, you basically make brackets (i make one long one per side on top of the track). and use it as an adapter you remount the seats..

      I did a little research on this and some other cars have pre-drilled holes were all you have to do is unbolt, move the bracket (i think it was the bracket) and bolt back on. Know if this would be the case for ours?
