Angry Divers seat adjustment / replacement

Hi all,
Well I've had my MY00 turbo for just over a month now and I'm generally impressed- apart from it being thirsty and a noisy sod (road noise, I'm 3/4 way soundproofing with felt stuff, but it's not making a massive impact. Is dynamat any better?).
However, a 400 mile round trip to Yate and back highlighted just how cramped and uncomfortable it gets while driving any distance! I'm 6'2" and could really do with another inch or two of seat travel to give a decent amount of leg room. I've had both seats out while soundproofing, and there is another notch on the adjustment rail that isn't usable due to the stops inside the rails. That would give a welcome, if not significant, 1/2 inch of travel, but I'm also wondering if Recaros etc have decent travel on their subframes?

cheers
Si

Smile Sorted- extra 26mm/ 2 notches of travel achieved

3 holes drilled and a new nut and bolt was all it took, 1 extra notch of travel is also possible by just drilling 2 holes. Not a lot I know, but better than nothing!
