As I am customizing my project car I am going to put better seats in it. I have seen S2000 seats in a teener and they looked good but the owner said it was a tight fit. I see all types of aftermarket seats on ebay in the $300-$500 range after shipping but will they sit too high?
914 seats are very low to the floor and being 5'11" I don't want to look at the windshield frame when I drive. Who else has put something else in a 914 and how do they work? |

I am 5'8", and I can't imagine that I am the shortest 914 driver here, but I feel like a midget (er - small person) when I adjust the seats in both my 914 and my 911. I can barely squeeze into the 911 when my seat is adjusted to the point that I need it to comfortably drive, and in the 914, I hate the look of a big gap between my seat and the backpad. Anyone else have this problem, and is there a seat that will put me closer to the pedals without making me feel like I should be singing the lollypop guild song? I have given serious thought to modifying the pedals on the 914, but pride has stood in the way.
