    On my '99 355, there is a lever under the knee bolster of each seat. It doesn't seem to do anything. Can anyone tell me what it is supposed to do? Maybe it's just an obsolete bit, who know's?

    The lever allows you to move the front part of the seat forward for more leg support. The ones on my 99 355 don't seem to work though. I pulled the driver side bolster forward and it wouldn't go back in. I eventually just pounded on it with my fist and it seemed to go :)
