Corrado seat opinions-experience?

[scourge at cogeco.ca (Scourge)]

Hey
One thing the keep in mind, is that A2 seat rails are angled differently
then A1's. I could barely see over the dash in a Plain MK2 rocco seat in an
A2 Jetta, but with the same seats in a rocco, I don't feel low enough.  The
front/center seat rail mounting point is higher in the A2's so you get WAY
more of a lean with an A1 seat.
