allows one to vary driving position, greatly, on long road trips

No only affords ample legroom but also........allows one to vary driving position, greatly, on long road trips..... Helps minimize fatigue/stiffness etc......

I am SO glad we got them. My ride is so much more comfortable...

I'm the primary driver of this vehicle. It was tight but not unbearable. My husband is over 6 feet and really hated riding in this vehicle because his knees were right up against the glove box. I'm also the cheap one in the family. He insisted on getting the seat extenders. Luckily, our Toyota dealer was willing to install them because we are mechanically incompetent. I am SO glad we got them. My ride is so much more comfortable and now I can push the seat so far back that I'm thinking maybe I need arm extenders so I can reach the wheel. The best part of this is that now the hubby is willing to take this vehicle on road trips.

I no longer regret the purchase of my RAV4 after installing Extend My Seat.

Being 6' 3" and taking many long trips in my car made for an uncomfortable experience. After easily installing Extend My Seat I have more than enough leg room and highly recommend it

I can now position the seat perfectly for me to be comfortable.

I'm 6'5" and Extend My Seat made it possible for me to get into my driver seat without having to squeeze my legs uncomfortably under the steering wheel like I used to. I can now position the seat perfectly for me to be comfortable. You'd think Toyota would have put more positioning options into the car, but thank goodness there's extend my seat to pick up the slack for short sighted automobile manufacturers.

This is the best mod I have done to my car yet.

Like yourself I am also 6'5" so the leg room is superb compared to stock. Great product. Thanks for thinking of us larger folks.

I am 6'5" and before the installation of the brackets my legs would get cramped after about a half hour of driving and my knee would be constantly touching the shifter.

Got the brackets for both my driver and passenger seats. The install took about 40 minutes to complete both sides (I have air tools) and it was pretty easy especially with the long bolt for the passenger side rear bracket hole. I am 6'5" and before the installation of the brackets my legs would get cramped after about a half hour of driving and my knee would be constantly touching the shifter. On the passenger side I had resigned myself to the fact that my knee would always be touching the dash and the glove box was not to be opened. I can't tell you how good it feels to drive and ride in the car now.

Exactly as advertised and totally thrilled with my purchase. It's like getting a new car all over again

Installation went more easily and quickly than expected, and operation has been flawless.

The ExtendMySeat product changes the Leaf from a cramped driving experience to one comfortable for the entire range. Installation went more easily and quickly than expected, and operation has been flawless. Definitely recommended for drivers 6'2" and over

I am very pleased with the Extend My Seat and have told several friends.

The parts arrived very promptly and were a breeze to install. They didn't change the floor mat fit and, most importantly, made our car comfortable for extended trips. We are delighted that such a product is available!

we were on the verge of selling and buying another vehicle.

I had originally purchased this top of the line version for my wife. But now I had to use it more and it was so uncomfortable for me to drive that we were on the verge of selling and buying another vehicle. That would have been a financial disaster since this 30k suv only had 18,000 miles despite being four years old. I searched and searched for a solution, and luckily came across a mention for extend-my-seat. In a last ditch effort, I figured what the heck. Yahoo!! I now love driving the Rav4. Unbelievable difference. Best return on investment on anything I ever bought.

No More Hip Pain and My Lower Back Pain Is Gone!

I loved everything about my Rav4 except for the driver's legroom. I was resigned to live with it until I found Extend My Seat on a Toyota Rav4 forum. After installing the rails in my car my sciatic hip pain and lower back pain have vanished. For a tall person like me the factory seat configuration can be crippling. I am so convinced I got my father a set of rails for his 2010 Rav4 and he loves them too! The rails are easy to install and make a tremendous improvement to the drivability of an otherwise fantastic car!

Robin

Crashed with the brackets installed. Performed Perfectly

You definitely get the legroom you need, but unless you also have long arms like I do, you may not be able to use all the legroom available. Installation was a breeze. No issues here. Was involved in an accident that totaled out my Rav4 and the seat did not coming off the brackets nor did the brackets fail in any way, shape or form. As I have seen this as a concerned by some members of the Rav4 forum, I thought this would be useful information. My only concern is the cost. IMHO they seem over priced. Still, I was glad I spent the money.

Mark

Highly recommended. There are no other avenues to explore except with your product.

Also, if you are tall and use back pillows to try and get comfortable while driving, you compromise the factory pre-determined leg room in your car even more. So your product will fill that need as well. I am 6' 4" with an inseam of 38" and I still have some additional rearward adjustment with your product. Thank you! Process was fine. Ordering, the time the product arrived at my doorstep, everything was stellar. I wish I could give you some information that may be useful, but I am lost as how I would improve the product. From start to finish only took me 20 mins. to install. Love it!

ONE OF A KIND

These are heavy metal, weighing 4.5 lbs each. There is a hump at the front of the extenders is to clear the seat rail and rear seat heating ducts. I installed for driver's side. I initially had them reversed so the raised lip was to the outside of the seat, but they go the other way.. I removed the plastic rear bolt covers - lift straight up, working the edges free. (I pulled backwards on one and broke off one of the plastic retaining tangs.) I unbolted the seat (4 bolts) and was able to work the seat extenders under the seat by rocking it forwards and backwards. I then loosely bolted down the extenders. I had trouble with the right rear bolt - it seemed too short but I just needed to compress the carpet strongly to get it started. I had to lift the seat slightly to move it back to the new bolting position. I used the factory bolts to bolt the extension brackets to the floor, then the extenders come with 4 bolts to bolt the seat to the brackets. The electrical cord to the seat is long enough, but it's now exposed when the seat is all the way back (which is further than I need it). Overall, a very well-made product that was pretty easy to install myself.

Do not suffer discomfort one more day!

I rate this product a 10/10, If 10 is standing on top of the Empire State Building with a megaphone then 10. Do not suffer discomfort one more day! Wish I had done this years ago! A really easy fix for a huge problem
