The cockpit seats were replaced by some PO, no idea what they are from.
My wife hates them, they really are uncomfortable, a 4 hour driving stint is way too long.
The drivers side base and seat is offset from the center of the steering wheel by nearly 2",
with the wheel is towards the center of the coach.
I'm always on the edge of my seat while driving, adding to the discomfort.
When I look at what it would take to center the drivers seat to the steering wheel
two problems appear,
1) the base flange would overlap the hatch,
2) any seat armrest would foul the hatch opening.
We'd really like a swivel bases, at least for the drivers side, and I do have a
pair of 10" swivel bases. My copilot is somewhat vertically challenged and
aftermarket seats seem too tall to be comfortable on the tall swivel bases.
Others seem to not have these problems and I cannot believe that GM really
designed this offset in the drivers seat. Yet I don't see any way to move
the steering column.
Suggestions on how to solve my seating problem?
