Seat height - 98LS
My driver's seat feels like it sits high, even when adjusted all the way down. I'm pretty normal size- 5'10" but feel like I'm looking out the top of the windshield when I look straight ahead. I'm wondering if there was a dealer adjustment to raise the seat up for short drivers that might account for this (yes, I have looked under the seat to make sure there isn't an old book or something under there blocking the seat from coming all the way down). I know older US cars had minor adjustments dealers could make to move the seats slightly to accomodate unusually short/tall drivers. This is not a big deal, but I do have an oddly proportioned friend (6'4", long torso, short legs) who bought a 1st gen LS because it was the ONLY car he could find where he wasn't looking through the shaded band at the top of the windshield, so I'm a little surprised to find this is an issue.

I have the same prob....I'm 5'11" and noticed that the LS seat doesnt sit as low as my old Ack Legend. I find myself sitting like a "gangsta" in my Lex just to be able to be at a comfortable height for driving. I hate that sitting high in the seat look. ghey.
