stock 370z seats height adjustment

nothingtodo · 07-20-2013, 01:47 PM

Can the height of the stock seats be adjusted with side mounts.

Height? How much higher do u need to go? Dialing the nob on the side to lift it up to its max isn't enough for u?

Or are u talking something else?

How about a small cushion to help you see over the steering wheel

i mean can u install side mounts on stock seats to go higher. do u need any modification if i do install them and i've already tried using the knobs on the side of seat to go higher but it's not even close.

Are you finding that the side mirrors block forward visibility on either side?

I believe there's a thread on here about using washers to raise up the seat further.

Simple answer for the OP's question is NO you cannot use sidemounts with the stock seats. You would have to get aftermarket seats and seat mounts to use side mounts.

Or a phone book. They come in various heights depending upon the population of the city.
