Have you driven the car with the seat raised. I am only 5' 6" and I can't stand to have the seat anywhere but the lowest position. Any higher and it feels like I am sitting on the car instead of in it.

I wouldn't raise the driver's seat. This is under the passenger seat. Until I can get some longer, hardened bolts, I will have to make sure my passengers just don't mess with the seat adjustment
BTW, the German version of Pep Boys doesn't sell hardware

Thanks. Ill try that. I raised the seat by 3/8" just with some washers. I know it may affect the safety, but it is temporary and I don't have passengers very often.
