I am 5'11" and have to scrunch down at stoplights to see the thing turn green. That is with the seat down all the way. When she's with me my 5' wife acts as spotter.

Yeah stoplights are a hassle lol, and I don't Even attempt the visors. but i'm so long in the legs if I set the seat on the floor I feel like my legs are bent awkwardly. I can deal with this in my weekend play toy, an 06 C6 vette, but I use my hhr for long trips and commute to work.

As I've said, I like to sit relatively square, so leaning the seat back doesn't work for me. I also have a sunroof, so that takes up a few inches of headroom. I wasn't happy with the support that the performance seats offered, and since I was going to have to make brackets, I decided to go lower with them. Now that I've been spoiled by the Recaros in the wifey's S4 I hope to swap again, but with a new house purchase in the near future (we just put an offer in on a post and beam house in the woods today) I don't know when I'll do it.

I am trying to order seat covers for my HHR 09, however the option is for "high back" or "low back" seats. How do I know which I have? They look high, but I don't haven't seen any other seats that are higher or lower?

Welcome to posting on the site, TVNews3, don't know about two different heights, I thought they were all the same.

If they aren't exact fit then they are probably just made to fit a wide range of models. Hence the option between high back and low
