You are able to adjust the height of the seats with the big handle on the left side. Maybe in your new car the height is set lower?

I'd so do the car pc first, but that's just me, and I am an electrical engineering major and pretty much a nerd anyways

What OBDII cable did you use for the digimoto? I am thinking of getting OBD2 software for mine but I don't want a cable that sticks out too far since i will hit it with my legs. Any photos of the OBDII connection?

Borisimo - you can EASILY move the OBD-II port up into the fuse box and have the reader stick out horizontally so it doesnt affect your legs at all (except for shining a nice green LED on them )

Ill get a pic, just for you :-P , one sec...
