ok...i drive an auto which blows since my last truck was a manual, but im 5'10" about 180 =) and i have the front of the headrest lines up with the seatbelt top on the door...if that makes sense lol. i just prop my left foot straight up and down....i guess...so my knee is kinda wedged in between the door and the wheel. but i got an auto, and i hate it...only bad thing.

i bought some phatty R Racing blue floor mats and steering wheel cover...so i dont got that indent...but twice the floormta slid up and wouldnt let me press on the gas very much...kinda scary cuz u think somethings messed up cuz ya know anyways.

but goin fro a 95grandam to my lancer....the seat didnt lower nearly as much as the one in the grandam and i felt like i was drivin a truck for about the first 2-3 weeks...sometimes now if for some reason i sit up straight i feel like im in my dads 2000 silverado. so im done rambling now lol. and im to poor to afford another pair of factory seats...let alone aftermarket seats...

I keep seeing them on ebay for like $375 per set. Another $50 will get you a quality set of Tenzos, or another $200 will get Corbeau seats, so why bother with the cheapos? They probably have unsupportive foam anyway.

my mom complains about my seats, but only because they lean back. She's one of those straight-back drivers and shiz.

I love my seats. Sure, cushion wise they could be a bit better but I'm not the type to complain about little **** like that.

I'm 5'2"ish and 100lb ish xD small, so my seats are pretty close to the front...

But my dad can fit in there fine. And he's a pretty big guy.
