Guest wobblybox Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hi all, Out of curiosity and for the short folk is it possible to buy a seat raising kit? my girlfriend went to drive the supra and couldnt see over the steering wheel. (probably a good thing). Also while i'm here is the standard radio/cd/tape thingy easy removed? it looks like the whole panel has to come off to gain access.

downimpact Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 The steering wheel can be lowered via lever on left. To take out stereo the whole dash has to be removed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blitz supra Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Hi all, Out of curiosity and for the short folk is it possible to buy a seat raising kit? my girlfriend went to drive the supra and couldnt see over the steering wheel. (probably a good thing). Also while i'm here is the standard radio/cd/tape thingy easy removed? it looks like the whole panel has to come off to gain access. yep whole left dash out (only do this if you know what you are doing) If not one of the more techy guys on here would surely be more than happy to do it for a beer. Whole job should take no more than 1/2 hr and buy the Adaptor leads so no cutting and joining of cables (Halfords £10 ) You'll need the metal doube din cage c/w cubby hole trinket tray, Really easy if you know what your are doing, dash comes out in about 5 mins after a bit of stripping Blimey she must be short I'm only 5ft 7 (AND A BIT)... ( I HAVE SHORT LEGS!!) and have no probs.... even my seat is right back with my little legs so how the six footers get on in a Supe god knows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downimpact Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 The wheel try turning it completely the other direction, raises the back of the seat. Took me a while to realise this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest wobblybox Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 What wheel? my seats adjusted by a lever at the side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downimpact Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I'm not sure if this is model specific but on the side of the seat i have electric lever which moves the seat forwards and back, electric lever that changes the inclination of the seat, and a wheel (not electric) that changes the lumber support at the back of the seat.

Guest wobblybox Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 Think it is model specific, mine aint got no electrics. looks like a cushion and a wee tartan blanket for the back shelf! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
