Like many others, I have read the thread on how to lower the RX8 power seats. While the procedure is pretty simple, it took me a few tries reading through the comments and every page of the thread to really figure it out. Once you're actually looking at the seat, it's pretty simple. I did this mod at the same time that I removed the footrest so I could gain some extra legroom as well.

If you don't wanna listen to me explain how to remove 2 10mm bolts from the footrest, skip to the 4:30 mark.


Mods, if you want to merge this with the original thread Link here go ahead and do so. Hope this helps someone!

 

Well Done.

I added a link to this to the instructions post in my post. That way it is at the top. If we merge the posts, I think yours will go to the end (based on post date). The DIY mod can move it if he thinks that is appropriate.

Again, well done.

 

Thank you sir. I didn't have a clear picture from the different threads of how this was supposed to work, this helps a ton.

 

No problem guys. If mods want to move this, to the original DIY thread, go right ahead

 

Good deal.
I've thought about doing it, the video makes it seem much easier.
Thanks!
