Picked up the seats today. Tore out the old ones, and got the Elise seats in to the car on both sides. First of all, they was much better to sit in than I expected! I think they are better than the originals. Took a car-mag with me and sat there for about half an hour to REALLY sit in them before deciding on the rake I will have on them. On the driver side, I got my ass so much longer back so the spacer for the pedals I intended to use will not go into the car. As for headroom, I got allmost 1" more headroom. On the passengerside, the support for the shoulders interfere with the engine hump, and not going as far back as I hoped for.The seats back is 1/3" closer to the firewall, but since it has so much less padding I now allmost fits comfortable in the right seat. Before, I did'nt get my knee under the dash, and had a wery uncomfortable position. I'm 6'2", and 230+ and really needed the extra space I could get. So, to you that has a tight fit, the Elise seats is a great buy!!

PS: will post photos of the seat when I have the camera with me.
