Make sure any option you get has strength to last the life of your car. My friend bought one for his Civic, and he T-Boned a smaller car at a four way and his seat extenders failed to stop his seat. He was fine, but had he been going faster he would've went through the wind screen.

Thanks for the clarification, Patrick. How much would it affect the seat height, and how much would it affect the floormat area where the passengers put their feet in the back?

Solution is easy, sell it and get a 1st or 2nd Gen Scion XB

haha. Yeah, it's funny, when I was looking at replacing my last car, someone on this very forum told me to go for a gen 1 xB because it was spacious and would return the same mileage. Honestly, I just couldn't get past the looks and I think the Corolla's interior is a bit nicer, too. Also, they had to drop that car down to a 1.4 L I think to get the same gas mileage as my Corolla with its 1.8 L.

...when you dont have a passenger you can be all the way back and comfortable. When you do have a passenger (usually minimal for most drivers) you can adjust it so they have as much room as they like.

Thanks for the info. I'll wait for a discount code or something and then I'll probably just go for it. Tired of being cramped when I don't have to be. Wish the Corolla had a telescoping wheel...I'm really going to be reaching for that wheel now.

 

Interesting For the 1st or 2nd Gen or Both? I recall seeing the 2nd Gen lost a little in both head and legroom.

 

Uhhh....what happened? That guys' posts are gone. Was that guy for real?

 

I have a set on my 09 Corolla & I love them. They are very heavy duty, look & feel stronger then the OEM rails. You will loose some rear seat leg room only if you extend the seat farther back. I love putting the seat farther back & set the CC when on long trips. :thumbsup:
