my only problem with the sport seats in the leg bolsters.. they don't allow my legs to spread out and lay properly (easy now! ...)

I was thinking of having a local upholstery shop alter the bolsters, bring them down a couple inches (flatten them). has anyone had this done? thoughts, comments?

also, I am rather short, 5'6", same with the wife. we both noticed that the seat does not go high enough for us to get a GREAT view over the hood. anyone else notice this?

My wife is 5'7" and hasn't complained.
I (5'9") had to play with the adjustments quite a bit to arrive at a comfortable height.


I think the "sport" seats are made that way when you're driving in "sport" mode to hold you in the seat.

It seems one should be able to order the Sport Package with sport seat delete.

wassy, if you already adjusted the seat to the highest but still not high enough for you two. the only way i can think of is add a cushion .
