Z3 offset pedals - solutions/ideas?
Discussion
I've done much Googling to no avail so far. Perhaps someone here can supply ideas?
It seems I am not alone in noticing the offset pedals in the Z3. There is clearly less space than in the passenger footwell, and the pedals are all set further right than is comfortable. This is exacerbating a lower back problem I have and I'd love to solve it as otherwise I think the car is fantastic and it's my mini project for the summer.
With the location of the pedals, I am basically shifted across, ending up sort of perched much more on my left bum cheek (pics not available
). It has the fully adjustable electric seats, and I have played with them and mine is as good as I can get. Apart from the rather 'flat' seat itself, I don't feel the seat lacks lumbar support or is uncomfy. It's not the best, but it isn't to blame.
I'll admit to being the short legged variety, so it's possible that adjusting the pedal height (which I understand is possible) may help a little, but I don't see that it will overcome the offset which is causing the problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions, sensible or otherwise, that I could try please?
