Seat adjust

Evening all

We are trying to adjust the drivers seat to go forward more that it does. Mrs CK is a little short in the legs and could do with the drivers seat moving more forward. Does anyone know of a fix for this? Is there a bracket or any other kind of upgrade / adaption?

Thank you for reading and possibly helping.

There is a row of holes in the floor for the front mounting clamps - lift the carpet to find them - maybe it has been moved back at some time in the past. Often the problem is that the seat is too 'laid-back' - and some fix this by fitting a thick wood batten to the rear floor for the rear legs of the seat to sit on. Driver's seats are usually adjustable anyway - although mine fails MOT like this - and so I have to put in a 'fixed' seat one day a year to keep them happy :roll: Maybe you have a fixed seat everyday??

Also try an additional seat backrest. With the seat on the forward adjustment, the forward mounting holes and the wood under the rear seat legs just about anybody of shorter stature should be close enough to the pedals
