I used the Kenny Brown seat rail extenders in mine and they gave me 4 extra inches...very happy.

not bad...just removed the seat then line up the new seat rails with the existing ones...then you need to drill 2 new holes through the floor and install the supplied bolts. Then install seat on top of new rail. Took me @ 20 mins to do it with hand tools and a cordless drill.

Do you think it would work if KB subframe connectors are already welded on?

I have the Kenny Browns in mine and they didn't interfere at all.

I have them. They work with my MM subframe connectors too. The price is insane since KB went under. They used to be $100 new for the 94-04 extenters. But they work wonders on longer drives, or when you just need to stretch out your legs and feet for a while

I'm curious to see what they are selling for now. I bought 2 sets 2 years ago for @ 140 each. I'm not gonna use the second set on the passenger side so i was gonna wait then ebay them.

yep your power seat still work. btw the further back you go theh lower the seat goes since the rail have a greater slope than the stock units.

Great news, I'm desperate to move my seat back

I had hoped the Mustangworld seat back mod would work, but after I took my seat out, I didn't see a way that it would work. Maybe I'm just missing something, or maybe the mod doesn't work on 99+ cars.

I found those KB seat rail extenders awhile back and wanted to get one for the drivers side, but after reading the (online) instructions, it seemed to me that my KB subframe connectors might be in the way. There doesn't seem to be a problem for you 96-98 guys, but do you think it will work on 99+ cars?

I'm so desperate, I might just buy them and, if they don't fit well, I'll somehow make them fit.

Thanks for the replies

I have a vert and now I am not sure if they will fit my car because of the subframe connectors that come fitted to the car from factory?
