Yep, mine has scratches and the passenger seat wobbles - what is odd is that last year I don't recall the passenger seat moving at all

I have a sheet of sticky back felt that I was planning on putting on mine but it doesn't really seem like a neat solution - let us know how yo uget on with your rubber feet

TBH, I've always used the furry bit of some sticky-backed velcro pads. Not particularly stylish, but stops the squeeking and rattling...

I have this issue, too, unfortunately i decided to go the expensive route and get a Backyard special lowering seat rail and respray the rear of the headrests in black, then going to add some felt strips and make it look as neat as possible

Being 6'3" my only bug bare with the car now is the seating position...

Aaron, did you get your BYS rails from the supplier reccommended in the other thread and if so, please could you give me an idea of how much you paid?

Happy to receive by PM if you prefer?

I'm just struggling a little with the seating position at the minute and getting it lower might help.

Hi Ian,

Yet to purchase these yet, but i will be.

Waiting for a response from Injection Imports as to whether there could be a group buy available, it seems a few people are keen one these!

From what i've seen though it can cost up to around £300.00 all in

It took just two weeks from order to delivery

Sticky back plastic would work and wouldn't look silly...

It was for the drivers side only, with shipping and import duty included.
It's £151.90 for just the rail from rhdjapan so cheaper than Nengun
