any one know where i might get somefor my 87 firebird? im tall and the leg room is a little tight for me. thank you

 

watz tall? im 6'2 and it aint that bad.....

 

im 6'4" and a big guy and its hard to get my foot on the clutch pedel (knee hits dash ) , on my auto camaro it was fine i only had to use my right foot .

 

Just curious. Is the Firebird dash's legroom different than the Camaro? I'm 6'6" and drive a 5-spd and I haven't had any problems. Perhaps I angle my leg to the side (never really paid attention to it, LOL).


Would it be possible to remount the seat base farther back by changing the track's mounting hole locations? I've haven't really had a good look how it's set-up.

When I bought my car the driver's seat was stuck adjusted all the way forward. I'm 6'1", it's a 5 speed, and I managed to drive it around the block, but it sure as heck wasn't fun

 

Nothing like smelling your own crotch while on a test drive huh!
Look at it from the bright side, if the heater didn't work, you could just press your knees together on your ears to keep them warm...

 

Yeah, I couldn't move my legs really, my knees were jammed up against the bottom of the dash. I had to press the pedals with my toes

Iroctopless: It would be easier to move the seat farther back on the track, instead of trying to change the seat mounting points. You could probably make brackets fairly easily, that would provide bolt holes for the seat track farther forward than stock. I wouldn't go too far, probably no more than 2" or so, or it will look odd, with the seat tracks showing in front of the seat.

 

I am 6'6" Get manual seats, will give you bout 2" more head room, and little back room bout 1", and get fiero rails, give you another 1/2 each way, makes it comfortable.
