Now; this is cool for a number of reasons. A) The driving position in the mini has always been something I'm not crazy about. The seats are too high and too close to the steering wheel, and the wheel is at a funny angle, and it generally doesn't feel like a sports car. The new seats being bolted directly to the floor behind the crossmember fixes this problem completely. I now sit nice and low, the pedals are the perfect distance away, and it just feels awesome. I'm pumped. 2) It's wicked easy to install them there!
One thing we're trying to figure out is the panel clearances for the hood; as you can see they're a little off. More on that as it progresses.
