I'll save my 313 dollars and take some foam from the bottom for the same effect

 

If you remove foam from the seat, the seat cover will not fit properly (even if you stretch it). Your seat will look like crap.

One OEM seat is around $4,000 from Honda.

IMO, $300 and change is a no-brainer compared to ruining the seat.

Is this a simple job? Just remove the seat, remove the rails, put new rails in, and new seat?

 

I lowered my drivers seat by reshaping the seat pan itself. I tried trimming the foam but Kodokan_4 is right, it screwed up the fit and comfort of the seat. I wound up putting the foam back in place. It took several tries to beat the seat pan to a shape that gave me what I wanted but I'm happy with it now.

If I'd had known about this when I first started playing with modifying the seat, I might have gone for it but now, that $313 seems kind of steep.

$313 for 4/5 of an inch. Two centimeters. Makes a 6' 3" person fit like a 6' 2.2" person.


Hmmmmm....

I need to lower my seat, but I'm going to try the pound the pan method.



I would pay $313 for a two or three inch drop, but i don't know if it's worth it for less than an inch.

 

Am tall and I dont have any problems with it... So why go for it?

BUT anyway its a good thing for those that are taller than me to have this option.

 

I know people laugh at 4/5 of an inch... but if there was a practical way to lower the Miata seats 4/5 of an inch, I would own a MSM right now. If your head touches the roof, sometimes half an inch means the world.

 

i have the rail but im short...i perfer a low seating position

 

The "4/5" of an inch is not really accurate. They mean 80% of an inch (25.4mm per inch). This actually converts to .787" or 25/32 of an inch...

Having tried pounding out my pan, with NO visible change, I'm very interested in this product.
