Re: pax seat lean

["Dean W. Cains" <dwc@domain.elided>]

Hi Dennis:

I've got a '74 Spider and when I removed the seats last year, there was an 
aluminum spacer under each bolt on the passenger seat outboard track.  Just 
as you described, this would cause the seat to lean slightly towards the 
centerline of the car.  I've got no guess as to the purpose of those 
spacers (maybe 10mm thick), but I didn't reinstall them with the new seats, 
and so far I haven't lost any passengers.
