Hey guys,
The previous owner of my car was maybe just under 5 feet tall, what does this mean to me? He must have modified the seat to sit higher than normal lol. Or it could just be me, at the seats lowest point I sit just 1 inch away from the ceiling. Im 6 feet tall so I can't imagine me being too tall.

Any one else own a 6gen, whom is around 6 feet tall, and finds the seats lowest resting point still to high?

thanks

youre too tall lol. im 5'8" and barely fit in my 02 civic with a couple inches to spare (and seat at its lowest position). sometimes in the winter my beanie scrapes the roof. civics are pretty cramped cars. if you want alot more head room, get a racing seat. the new sliders pretty much touch the ground so you will be at least 4-5 inches lower.

ya i figured that would be one of my few options. I've always wanted racing seats too, Recaro. Buts that's probably item number 5 on my list of things to do for/with my car.
so maybe in a year and a half.

Or i'll just cut off the top and be the only guy on the block with a convertable civic.... lol lame.
