poxy small seats

Post by mkultr4 »

Are there any 406's that have better seats that the too small, unsupportive ones in my W reg D9?
they only support halfway up my back leaving my shoulders hanging out of the seat?
for a car thats meant to be built for comfort, it seems crazy to fit midget seats.

Thanks

They are the leather ones yes?
Are the executive seats a different shape/size to the LX seats?

No not a different shape / size according to spec, only covering. But the D8 seats were different to the D9 ones and some say that the older D8 ones are more comfortable.

I've got a D9 Exec with leather, and the seats are a little disappointing, nice arm rests but no adjustable lumbar and not a great deal of support for your behind. Mind you they don't give me a dead arse like the ones in boss' Vectra!

I've found the 406 seats much narrower than my Phase 3 306 seats which is good as I have a fairly small frame.
But I don't have side airbags on the 406 which is why I think the seats are a better fit for me.
