Any way I can get my front seat to go lower, It's adjusted all the way down but still quite high, my brother's pov. spec ph.1 is lower and that's a fixed height seat :?

Cheers Smile

Well without changing brackets I don't think there's an easy way to lower them tbh....have you tried moving the seat back and changing the back angle instead...?

yeah but *if* (when) I'm chucking it round country roads, I'd rather stay in my seat and not worry about being a bit higher up.

IIRC 5dr seats are higher than 3dr if that makes a difference.

Putting 3dr seats in a 5dr leaves them higher by maybe an inch. Its really annoying but I don't think its that hard to change, one of those things on my to do list!

My poverty spec seats in my XLdt were a tiny bit lower than the ph3 half leathers I have in it now. Mine is also adjusted all the way down. I just got used to it though.
