I love this mod so much, I did 3 more seats!
It's quite a job so if you need to do it I'd suggest doing them all at once. Both my wife and I are over six feet tall and the standard seat placement needs just a couple more inches. Here are the 3 seats being modified (one other seat was done months ago):
Backyard work area:
Drilling out the stock mount:
Track removed. See the roller bearings:
Grinding down the stops to allow the track to move two more inches:
All done, two seats waiting for installation:
Does your seat go back this far?
The first one I did with inferior tools. This time I invested in a good grinder and it made the job much faster, easier and safer.
The extra 2 inches makes a world of difference. Much more space for long legs for both the driver and front seat passenger.
