Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

After being bit by the track bug I went back to looking for XL seats for by XL backside (6'6" 42" waist) in order to make a helmet work. As is, I'm less than an 1" off of the headliner in my 2003 C4S
Pulled the trigger on Racequip's XL FIA race seat. Showed up to my door about an hour ago. In the living room it fits great. Just wide enough. Great support at the hips and shoulders.
Took the driver seat out. Just dry fit into the car and I think I've gained less than an inch of headroom. It felt awesome in the car. But, there's no way with a helmet it will work with me.And, the shoulder wings just a hair past clearing the top of the door fully. And, it would have likely taken custom side mounts to bolt it in anyway.
Damn shame. Maybe I just keep it to build a racing simulator now.
Install aftermarket individual mount brackets and skip the sliders. Bolt the side mounts directly to the brackets. You'll gain 1-3 additional inches depending on how it's mounted.
Or it would make a great office chair! Sickspeed sells just the base kit for car seats for $80
( you have to call them, not on website)
I love mine! (I bought a set of seats for my car, one of the seats had a broken ratchet/tilt mechanism so they sent me a new seat and told me to keep the broken one, weld the mechanism from moving, and make it into an office chair if I wanted.....)
Just another worthless idea I fell for, hahahahahahahaaaaa
Dang. When a man wants to track his car and can't, apparently. There's no justice! But yeah you could go all in on Sim racing. Safer, cheaper, and available pretty much any time. I'm getting one for retirement, just try and stop me.
