Yes Hanno, I only included that photo to show the normal Cab 12 position, I didn't expect to be able to operate the clutch myself. Interestingly though I found it a lot better than the Cab 12 I tried to drive three years ago, which makes me believe the seat is lower in my vehicle. I don't know because there are no Cab 12s nearby to inspect, so I'd like to see some photos of other Cab 12 seat spacers. Or even just the measurements, mine is 30mm thick as mentioned, but it's a single spacer, whereas Phil spoke of there being two spacers.

I'll post some details on the field mod kits shortly, I don't fully understand them but they seem to be along the same lines as my own experiments.
