I didn't like on my G63 that the front seat didn't go back enough. Searched the web over and over and found seat extensions that will move your seat back 1.57 inches.

Anyone else tried these yet? I was told they are made in Germany.

You just posted the same thing 5 days ago, why not just reply to your own thread to bring it to the top instead of starting another?

Should have put that in the post. Fourbyfourclub is where I found them. He said it would take about 20 mins to install with no seat removal.

Email Vlad, I can't find it. I found it through a thread when I ordered it. But Vlad will know exactly what it is and take care of you. Thanks

You post the link and then edit the post saying you can't find it? What an Arschloch!

I didn't like your attitude, sorry! Try being nice maybe when you ask something instead of a jerk off!

I'm thinking of buying a G, but the lack of leg room is an issue for me (I have very long legs). On the other hand, I love the height (I have a very long torso)!

Does anyone have experience with these extenders? I'd be very grateful to hear your experiences.

I would love to let you know but my G won't be here until August. I had a heck of a time finding any info on them at all or anyone that had any remarks about them.

They are made in Germany and are very high quality as far as build. Two thick steel bars. I bet they weigh 1 1/2 lbs each. About 3/8 thick and near 3/4 of an inch wide.

They site showed instructions but when I ordered them they came with none. Looks easy to figure out and if they work as advertised, I will be happy.

I hate having my legs cramped up to be able to get to a brake fast. If you order some, I would contact GMP performance. They are friendly and not short when you want information.
