What are you doing for short passengers with a non-height- adjustable passenger seat ? Wife can barely see over the dashboard ...

Anyone solve the short person problem ? Obviously a wedge shaped cushion might help but then the airbag remains inactive because it won’t sense enough weight ...ugh!

Hmmm. Sorry, I have nothing for you. I have the opposite problem. At 6'7" I look through the top 3" of the windshield. Have a hard time at traffic lights even with the seat lowered all the way. Does anyone have any seat lowering ideas?

A boat cushion might work. How much higher is she looking to go? I'm not sure why you think the airbag won't work. It doesn't take much weight to trip the passenger present switch.

Ooh, interesting I had not considered a tall person problem ! Another two or 3 inches of height would be perfect. The passenger air bag light off indicator stays lit so I know it is not working

Have that airbag light checked. I think the standard is 65lbs to turn on the airbag.

Take the front seat out, sit in the back. :crackup:

I hate ducking down for traffic lights and I'm 5" shorter.

I installed a corbeau evo x seat. Best investment ever. 2.5" thick seat base for the most headroom for an off the shelf solution. The rails are 1.5" tall so you could bolt the seat to the car for that extra headroom. You'll lose leg room if you do that, but man, it's a great feeling to see what short people see. To add, short people can't see over the steering wheel.

I'm about 38" tall sitting down straight up if you want to compare.
