Driver seat height

sygazelle · 12-10-2024, 01:37 AM

I've got a 2014 F30 328 with sport seats and electric adjustment. The drivers seat height is fine for me, but my wife is short and she would like the seat adjusted higher. I've adjusted it as high as it will go and it is still really low. Have any of you had this issue and if so, were you able to make the driver seat go higher?

Have you tried tilting the seat forward?

These cars use 4 bolts not studs so it'd be pretty easy to get some high grade bolts and a spacer kit to raise it a bit. They do make seat spacer kits. Are they safe? I don't know.
