Default seat back?- help

I love my vette yet I would love it even more if it were possible to have the seat back powered so that it would be ifinite/variabley adjustable. Are any of you aware is that possible?expensive?......I can not find that comfortable spot within the mechanical adjustments on these stock sport seats. THANKS

Are you talking about the mechanical reclining controls, but power for everything else? I have the same sport seats... but never found an issue with comfort. Have you tried adjusting the seat airbags?

Anything is possible with enough $$$, and this sounds like it would take a lot of it... whether your modding the stock seat or swapping in a completely different seat.

yep'er....the seat is fairly comforatble but if the back was infinite in its "adjustability"(new word) it would just be much much better for me.

I would prefer to keep the stock sport seats, was just wondering if any forum members new of any options or mods that may be out there?
