3 door - memory seats?
« on: 18 April 2010, 18:57 »
I'm sure this has been covered at some stage, but I'm struggling to find it if it has...

I have a 3 door car - and it appears neither of my seats have a memory  :rolleyes:
What I mean is that when I slide them forward to let someone in the back, they don't remember where they were.
I've tried a few times today, and each time they end up fully forward. 

Is there a trick to this? - my ED30 was slide it back before tilting the seatback upright.

There was a thread about this a couple of weeks ago. Unfortunately, I did not pay too much attention to it as I have a 5 door. There were some unusual posts on it. If you wade through the threads you are sure to find it. :smiley:

On another note, where have you placed the microphone?

Where am I looking?!?

I remember the thread a while ago, but didn't pay any attention as I didn't have a car then!

On another note, where have you placed the microphone?

Today I moved it to the top of the A-Pillar.  I've just been for a wee drive, and my fiancee said it was almost perfect.  I phoned her when I was drving along a 20mph street and she didn't realise I was drving.  Once I got up to 50+ she could hear the engine, but she said it was as clear as it would be if I had the phone to my ear.
I have some pics, along with the rest of my How To... but I'm on my laptop just now and can't be bothered.  I'll post them tomorrow.

Same seats - different headrests!!
I would imagine they're meant to work the same.
