corrado seats (was:RE: Steering wheel q's)

[wasserbox@yahoo.com (Mark Mages)]

Nope - the golf / jetta seats have a level base, but
the Corrado seats are sloped like the sciroccos.  I
think the back might come up higher, but the base sits
the same...  with it all the way down your ass is like
2" from the floor pan.
