Drivers Seat

Has anyone had any trouble of not having not enough head room in the drivers seat? I tryed to lower the seat of an HHR at the dealership and I made it go as low as it would, so my next solution to get more room, was the ganster lean the seat a little. Just wanted your opoions on the amount of head room, since the seat sits high.

That's what I was wondering. I've had friends of mine that are in 6'2" - 6'6" sit in my HHR and they didn't seem to have any problems with head room. At 5'7" I have no problems with head room even with the seat all the way up.

Just Lowar it, change wheels to a larger size maybe 18's or 20's (you got any ideas?), then you will have no problem sitting low!

Fix's it right up!

Later!

Maybe '06 needs to get outta the Road Ripper and into a real HHR. I'm 5'5" and have no problem with the seat up all the way. And I don't have a problem with the door locks either. Too uncomfortable getting my elbow up that high.

I think that's just an HHR problem no matter what height you are. I have problems seeing around our A-pillars sometimes also.
