    Interesting. How much how do you sit with aftermarket seats on manual sliders vs electric? Obviously not enough to be material as I think you’re about the same size as me -ish and you track yours with helmet and all and it doesn’t make enough of an issue for you to be unhappy with manual sliders by the sounds lol. My rear seat has a seat delete so the speed of access isn’t a huge driver for me. It’s more the simplicity of the seat trade with this guy and deleting another electrical component I’m in for. Providing that height difference isn’t a huge concession?

I k ow some of you have tried both and some guys are about my size so may have some good insights on what you preferred?
    I ended up moving from power to manual slides on both sides, because the power slides are really freaking slow. I use my back seats fairly often, and having to wait for the seat to move all the way forward is surprisingly annoying.

    STAATS I am pretty sure its the other way. Lower on the manual sliders

    I was supposed to get the nuts with mine but HMS missed it somehow. Luckily the seat fits me perfectly without any lumbar support .. unlike my OEM non-lumbar seats which were terrible for my back. Really depends on body shape.

    Came for the seat review. Stayed for the sack content.

    Too far?

    Regards
    My seats came with the lumbar cushion, so there was a hole for its air line.
