Hi All

Just wondering if EP3 owners out there can advise if their front passenger seat automaticlly slides forward when the lever is lifted. I'm looking to buy one and the one I looked at on the weekend didn't automatically slide forward when I lifted the lever.

I had to first lift the lever to move the backrest forward followed by pulling the level under the seat to slide it forward to let the back passenger out.

Is this how it is for everyone else? If so, has anyone performed a mod to the front passenger seat so that it will slide forward automatically when letting the back passenger out?

Thanks

Just a quick question.. Do you guys use any cleaning products to clean the seats?

somewhere in the big EP3 thread there was a long ass discussion about it lol

we agreed a steam cleaner from the supermarket or sugar soap are your best bets (Y)

Thinking about it again. I really wouldn't mind if I lost the position of the front passenger seat as it would be easier to let the passengers in the back out if the seat slided forward.

Oh well, nothing I can do about it.
