Its a right ball ache becuase when im at a dodgey junction where u have to sit forwards to see round the corner my heads like nearly on the roof

Has no one got any advice or suggestions on what to do?

Custom subframes and buckets mate. They only way to go.

Speak to one of the specialists either GDi, K-tec or shed motorsport.
Sat in one of the GDi demo cars at the french car show an that was a hell of a lot lower than mine as std

What is the best way to get in touch with one of these?

Here's what I did to my drivers seat!

I'm 6'5 and now I fit with a nice amount of headroom
The passenger seat is fitted normally and its slightly lower than standard. The drivers side subframe was modified somewhat

^^^^ But i want to keep the standard seats. ( looks good btw)

Nothing you can do really. Not worth butchering them up as you won't be able to return the car to standard. You need to either replace the drivers seat, or buy a bigger car. I opted to change the seats as I love the car.
1 Bucket seat and subframe will not cost that much and will improve your driving position by far.
