I gotta ask. Why Cavalier seats? They have to be the most uncomfortable seats ever put into an American car, aside from the Saturn ION seats.

I would love to have a nice storage compartment and 2 cup holders in a rear center console. I actually posted back in November that rear captains chairs should be an option because in reality 3 adults are not sitting in the back seat for any lenght of time.

i moved the seats back about 1-2" so you have a little more leg room. plus they recline which helps alot. im 6' 4" and i fit behind the driver seat with it pushed way back. i will probably be adding a cup holder and extending the console into the front for an arm rest since these dont have one
