lowered seat and or extended seat rails?

Hi,

I've got a 2000 Honda Civic HX Coupe with the EJ7 Chassis. I'm finding that my tall, long torso body is making it something of a head thumper getting in and out, and just awkward over all on both ends. I don't mind losing backseat legroom, but could really use as much extra headroom and leg room as I can get.

I'm hoping there is a way to both lower the stock driver seat, *and* allow it to slide back another 2-7 inches. It is totally ok if this means that it can no longer slide forward as far as it used to.

If any of you have done this or seen products intended to accomplish this, I'd really appreciate hearing about it. I've done some searching, but I'm new to the civic ecosystem so I don't know what to call these sorts of mods, and where to look for them.

Thanks

You'd probably have to cut and weld the factory rails/mounts
