Just got my libby shipped from texas on wed and i love it. That being said i absolutly hate that the seat has no up/down adjustments. Im 6ft 4 and it makes for a rather uncomfortable ride. Has any one modded the seat braket or maybe removed some spacers to get the seat a little lower? |

I'm six foot five and have a 38 inch inseam. I have no problems with leg room in our '04. I can stretch out my left leg fully and my right leg is comfortable as well. |

Its not really a qeustion of leg room. Its mostly my line of sight being partially blocked. Im getting used to it though so ill probly leave it alone. I went from driving a passat to the kj so it was a big dif |

I went from driving a passat to the kj so it was a big dif I am only 6'2" and I knew about the line of site problem before I purchased. The only problem I have is seeing some stop lights, but there is usually some helpful motorist behind me to let me know when it changes ![]() I think if you raise your seat all the way up, you can look through the sunroof. |

You could always mount one of these to your windshield and then you will be able to see any stop light! http://www.honestcharley.com/hot-rod-pa ... prism.html |
