It makes very little odds, you still feel like you're driving a Jeep

Yeah, it kinda hinges the seat on the front rather than lowering the whole lot so if you have it at its lowest you feel like you're squashing into a ball with your knees in your mouth.

At the highest you feel like you're being tipped off the seat head first.

When you put on the heated front windscreen that also activates the heated front mirrors
