Whish List? = Seats

I wish Smart put the seat adjustment levers on the outside of the seats instead of the center. Then you could flip the seat forward to place things in the back since the seat lever would be easily reach from the side doors.

Having them inboard takes advantage of the free space in between the seats. If the levers were outboard, we'd be reading about people who have trouble squeezing their heavily jacketed or gloved arm/hand in between the door and the seat just to adjust their seatback angle while driving, for example. Since the car has a hatch and a tailgate for loading up the rear and the only time you're going to fold the passenger seat forward and flat for cargo is obviously when there aren't any passengers coming along, doing it from the driver's seat makes sense. Just open the driver's door and reach in to fold down the passenger seat.

Cheers,
Arch

That doesn't bother me, but the location of the shoulder restraint does. I'm short, so it cuts right across my jugular. I need to find a way to lower it. That's the only uncomfortable part of driving for me.

Thanks! That just might work.

Bought a set of those for both my Ridgeline and the wife's smart...She really likes them and whenever I'm a passenger in my truck, they keep the seatbelt from rubbing on the side of my neck.

I agree with you. They could leave the seat back adjuster where it is, and have a release lever on the outside facing part of the seat.
