Default Seat height

The seat in my car has been raised by the previous owner by putting a spacer under the runner that bolts to the floor to raise the rear of the seat. Do these bolts have a nut on the bottom of them or are they in to a bush in the shell?

I'm assuming that its not standard as the passenger seat runners sit on the floor.

The nuts are welded to the chassis so you can undo the bolts no probs.

When I first got my CSL, I was happy enough with the seat position until one day, a year or so later I sat in the passenger side and thought it was better!!! I proceeded to whip the seat out and have a footer with it. It's now perfect for me and just wish I'd adjusted it before.

Remember it can recline/tilt a little too, and drop even further. Welcome BTW

Is 5ft 2 and 3/4 a midget status?

Have never adjusted the seat in the CSL so not sure if it is on "midget" mode or not
