    Hi - bit late to comment but having watched your video wondered how much further back the seats now go? I’m 6.3 and need as much legroom as possible

    Another nice little mod I did on my clio was a steering column lowering spacer kit, a guy on Facebook josh wheeler sells the kits, not too expensive either and makes a big difference.

      @@tmusson151186 cheers mate, I found them. Just looking and searching the Cliosport website I think I can do the same thing with some stainless steel standoffs, just need to work out the correct length vs standard bolts or new ones. Thanks for sharing mate

    To make it even lower remove the spacers underneath the seats which are just chilling in the chassis they’ll just pop off. Looks a bit better for height wise

      @@jwmeale3058 Personally I’ll say they’re small but once you remove them you’ll feel a massive increase in height. The only downside of it is it’s harder to get people in the rear if you remove the spacers due to the rails will be touching the carpet

    Do these fit standard 182 seats or just the recaros? Thanks

      This set was made for recaros. I would assume Jon foz who makes them does them for a wide range or Clio seats 👍🏻 contact him on fb!

    They are £275 new and delivered mate…ask me how I know! But actually worth every penny. My only criticism with the setup, is I now want to get my steering wheel lower. So need to look in to ways to adapt the column…if that’s even possible

      Only driven across town to the MOT but felt great! My steering wheel felt alright. Will have to see once I’ve driven it some more. See the guy below is helping you out with finding spacers 👍🏻

      Russ, space the bolts that mount the column to the inside of the car.
      This can be done by using a collection of washers and longer bolts.

      *Ouch!* £275 for 4 bits of mild steel is a bit steep. I defo need some though, as I'm a bit of a lump and stock seats are a bit narrow and just sit too high for me.
