    Love it - installed in 2012 Ford Escape

    Thanks to the previous two reviewers who left comments about having to modify the power seat rails as there are no instructions. I did that with an angle grinder, two cuts to a side. I then bent the tab left behind back and forth until it snapped off. Overall it was about 90 minutes start to finish to put in. I will agree with the comments about it being well built and strong - it appears to be. No worries on my part about it being too flimsy. The seat goes way back, far beyond my needs. It will let the seat move back to within 1/2" of the back seat. Essentially that's as far as possible in an Escape because the rear axle is under the back seat and there is no more floor left. No matter how tall you are, you'll be happy with this extender or an Escape is impossible for you. This extender points out how ridiculously biased in favor of the short the stock adjustment is - even with nearly 6" further travel backwards, my 5' 2" wife is OK with the extender installed. She moves the seat back about 3/4" from its full forward travel now. I would guess if any other driver is at least 5', they'll be OK with the extender installed in the vehicle.

    modification...

    Hello, the brackets are very well made, and strong. There were no Instruction included in the box, and the factory seat brackets needed to be cut out in a "U" shape to allow the factory stud and nut to poke through the factory seat brackets .it is a good thing i have a plasma cutter . i did not see anywhere on your site about modification or cutting of the factory seat brackets needed to complete the install.

    factory seat mods

    I have a 2010 Escape, with power leather seats, I am over 6" in height, and the legroom just is not enough, so I had bought these "extend my seat" brackets. Let me first say is how well made the brackets are, very strong, (maybe a little too strong,) but more is better than not enough I would guess. The box came very well packaged, Inside the box the brackets were well insolated, and so were the package of bolts. There were no instructions included, and one has to figure out what side the rails fit on, they did bolt onto the floor with no problem. But this is where it got complicated, on the back of the factory seats on the floor, there are the mounting studs from the floor, so once the rail is in place the nut is tightened to the bracket and floor, it sticks up, so now when the seat is back to mount onto the new brackets, the factory seat rail hits the stud that is sticking out of the floor, so you cant mount the back of the seat down. so the factory seat bracket on the back has to be notched out to fit a"u" shape so when the seat sits flush the factory stud and nut has room to poke through the factory seat bracket. (kinda hard to explain without pictures) I used a white marker to outline where the factory seat bracket needs to be cut out in a "u" shape, and cut it out with a plasma cutter, if you do not have a plasma cutter you could use a cutting wheel and a grinder to do the job. The size of the "U" that needs to be notched out on the factory seat bracket is about 1 inch long or so, so the stud/nut from the factory floor and poke through the seat bracket. (i wish I could include a picture for you all to see.
