Dave - maybe you can help. Yours is the first pic where I think I can make out the seat floor lightening holes I have. My problem is the 6 pre-drilled holes in the seat pan base don't really line up well, and some of those holes are directly OVER a lightening hole, so there would be no way to set up the blind nuts.
Second question, I'm 6'2" and wonder how far I should set my seat back. The leading edge of your seat pan seems to be about 2 to 3 inches back from the front. Is that a good spot for you? I was initially thinking putting it all the way back. Thanks!
