Is it possible to modify the steering wheel column at all to tilt it up or push it away from me bit? Or any sort of alternative boss that might bring it in? I dont really know how these things work (obviously)

It's my only bug bear now with the car (bit of a perfectionist with these things) is the steering wheel position is just a tad too close to me. Sometimes cramps my right hand

Is it a no hoper, something to just live with?

 

Any further in and you will be hittin the indicators / washer stalk with your hands when cornering I think!

Seat further back and get some longer legs

 

Its already as far back as it will go!

Might have a chunk of bone removed from my arms, probably be easier

 

Search lowering standard seat.

You can lower the base 25mm or so I believe which makes a good difference.
