Seat question. The only reason im posting this in here is because there seems to be more fabrication and people willing to help in here so here we go.
My G/F wants to drive my car but she is too short to reach the clutch LOL. She is 5'3" and the seat just wont go far enough up. Is there anything I can do to fix this or another seat that will go up further? Maybe there is something wrong with my seat? I am 5'10" so I dont have any problem reaching it but I dont want to weld one in place.
Also to justify this being in the drag racing section. If there is a racing seat that would do what I needed it to then im all ears.

pedal extensions? lol. just fyi that most tech inspectors will want you to have some sort of seat back brace or solid attachment point for the seat back along with the bottom of the seat if you use anything but the factory seats.

my girlfriend has the same problem (she's 5'2) lol. Im 6'1 but like to driver closer to the seat so i didnt need the seat all the way back as far as it will go stock so we pulled the seat out and re welded the studs for the seats about 3 1/2" farther forward and now she can JUST barely get the clutch, but its enough so she can drive my car no problem at all
