REFLECTOR: Rear Seats

[Laurence Coen]

Kurt,

I found the same thing when I put in my back seats.  Since there is lots of leg room in the back, a simpler solution would be to move the rear seats a few inches forward as the overhead increases and the ducts slope down.

I put the rear seats in to check some things for upholstery. With the aft outside corner of the seat pan sitting on the side duct there sure isn't much headroom. I'm only 5'9" and I have barely 1/2" headroom (below the NACA scoops) and that is without a headliner installed and no headset. 

Anyone had this problem on a Standard or 173 Velocity? 

The only way it looks like I can get more head room is to cut the duct and flatten it our in that spot, but I don't have much room for that. It might buy me another 1/2". Any other adjustments would make the seats crooked (side to side) since the aft corner is resting on the duct. 

Any input? 

Kurt
