For magnum pi they took out a bunch of the seat cushioning on the bottom and then they moved the tracks back as far as they could, but it still had the adjustments and all. |

Didn't they take the tracks off the Magnum PI cars so Tom Selleck could fit inside ?! I believe they just bolted a thin metal strap to the seats but then you have no for/aft adjustment. OK if you are the only one driving. |

I am also big and I have no problems of space. Of course if I want a laaaarge room I pick up my Rolls or my Bentley for a drive :-) |

The seats in my TR are lowered 2 inches (5 cm) done by the previous owner who is 6'5". I am almost 5'11" and I cannot imagine the seat being higher. Sitting in a 308 or 328 is a real problem for me as I think the car just does not have any room. In the Mondial you have lost of headroom and 2 seats behind you, in the TR you have lots of room around and behind you. I still think the 308/328 are the best looking Ferrari (308 GTS QV and 328 GTB are my favourites). |

Hi I am 193 cm (sorry) and I have a 328 GTB. I have installed a snap-off system with extra extenders (2x1/2"). It moves the steering wheel 50 mm (2") closer. It is now much more convenient to drive. Ciao Peter |

I sat in a 328 GTS today for the first time, whoa! Very small cabin compared to my Mondial 3.2. I am also 6'1" with long torso and I could not sit in the thing without my head being at 45 degrees! I tilted the seat back as far as I could but it was too laid back, I am used to sitting almost upright and close in my Mondial and other cars. I also note that the air con duct outlet hits you in the kneecap, ouch. I looked at lowering the seat also and I can't see much room there, I think you may be able to fit a 1 peice racing seat with little or no padding and that's about it. PC |

Have any of you lowered the drivers seat? I am 6'1", and I am tall from the waist up, with realitively short legs. I believe that my driving position would be better if I could lower my seat. Anybody tried this? All ideas will be appreciated. |
