How do you find the seats now for leg room? Im on the tall side (6.5) and just crossed my mind the the leg bolster will possibly be deeper on the gti seats?
It’s been none stop for a while that’s for sure, I’m knackered all my free time spent on doing stuff.

Leg room is fine for me but I’m closer to 6.0 and manage totally fine. The GTI seats are the most common seat change I’ve seen on the caddy and not heard of anyone having trouble.
Obviously the seats are a lot more huggy so you notice getting in and out but that’s it.

Thanks for letting me know :)
It was more a passing thought that just popped into my head as I read through. I’m now wondering if the bulkhead would stop the seats going as far back as they could. For all the caddy’s I’ve driven I just know it’s, “snug” if you like around the legs.

I do have the seats adjusted up to the bulkhead and can see why some people remove it all together but it’s just the same as standard seats really for leg room.
