More leg room

[Wightlingo]

Hi all, I like my Berlingo but for one thing, the leg room is not great, and I could do with the seat higher up and further back. Any suggestions??

have you pulled the various levers?

The seats don't go back especially far, that is true.

About all you can do is modify the seat subframes to suit, and advising how to do that safely is way beyond the sort of advice I'd be happy to post on here.

It is a 2012 XTR, and I am 6 foot 2. On long runs I am always looking for somewhere to put my left leg. In the good old days cars had alternative holes to mount the seats.
I have got some 25mm box section in the workshop.

i did surgery on the carpet where your left foot sits and cut the large lump of foam out from beneath, im also 6'2 and this now gives me enough to get the old size 13 comfortably in there. The carpet pushes down once the foam is out but you will end up with a hole, i covered mine with some of that stretch carpet glued on. Im a berlingo van not the xtr so unsure if its the same set up but it maybe an option for you before going down the route of cutting and welding.

Take out the drivers seat and sit in the back?
