C3 seat hinges

Does any know if there is a manufacturer that makes an adjustable hing for a C3 seat?

Perhaps you're looking for a way to adjust the amount of rake on the seat back? There are shims that go under the stops on the seat bottom if that's what you mean.

You could also put washers under the front or rear mounting bolts to tilt it.
Hope this helps.

Seat upgrade

Were the C5 seats power? I tried C4 seats without the power bases and didn't like how they sat.

Yes they were power but it was removed before i bought the seats,i didnot want that stuff anyway because it would have put the seat up higher.The seats still adjust fully ,recline and slide.These seats are very comfortable,our old seats really are bad for comfort.Do a search,alot of people have been doing this,you will love them.
