Default How do I make the seats go farther back?

I've done a bunch of searches on this forum for this topic, but couldn't find anything.

I haven't done any mods to my tC. It seems like most of the mods people do are much more involved than trying to just make the seats go back farther, so I hope someone has a simple answer.

Thanks,
Nick

Besides using the lever, I don't think there's another way. That is, unless you move the tracks further back.

It just seems like there's physically room for them to go farther back but there's some sort of stoppage that prevents it. I've tried to look under the seats and see what's doing it, but haven't been able to find anything.

Because that's the furthest it will let you go. Only other way is to get it custom made for you. How tall are you?

I'm not that tall, but it'd be nice to at least push the passenger seat farther back so it's easier for someone to have extra legroom and sleep.

Take the headrest off and make the bed... no need to move the seat.

What he said. Just recline the seat all the way back.

Just in case the OP sisn't realize the TC has this feature here is what you do.

Slide passenger seat all the way FORWARD, take off headrest, lay seat back all the way flat until it is flush with rear seat cushion and finally recline rear seat and grab a pillow, curl up and have some zzz's.


The end.

Fabricate a longer track

IMO, it'd be nice to have a bit more track.
