For the life of me, I can’t figure out why? Does anyone know why you would want a lever for the back rest instead of a knob? For my experience, I can dial in the exact amount of back rest tilt to provide to optimum seat position. According to many performance driving books, you should be able to sit back in the seat, extend your arm to the top of the steering wheel and rest your wrist on the top without stretching. Using that technique, I have found that the lever style seat adjustment rarely ever has the notches in the ratchet mechanism to allow my wrist to be in the right spot. The knob on the other hand can be used to make minute adjustments to achieve the perfect posture. I have also noticed that the Recaro seat in my SVT Focus and Mustang use a knob for seat adjustment. Looking at Sparco, Momo, Corbeau, and Cobra seats, they all use the knob. To my knowledge, no performance seat comes with a lever. For a pure driver’s car, the lever belongs in the trash. Precise adjustments are the key to driver’s comfort. I would be happy if the old crank from the first gen Focus came back for the height adjustment!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
