Want to buy an \'05 Viper but....

Test drove a red '05 and was impressed. One thing that is holding me back is
that the cabin room was a bit tight. Any way to gain some space particularly
some head room. I have read in other posts guys ove 6'4" that fit in the cabin
with some room. I also heard there is a kit to lower the seat for gen 1,2 vipers, does this kit exist for the '03 and up.

Northwind Engineering makes a 1" and a 2" kit. I am having Woodhouse Dodge install the 1" kit $430 before delivery of my '05 SRT-10. :thumb:

Chris,

I am 6'3" and I fit ok but at some point I will likely go with the 1 inch lowering kit.

I am not sure but I think that the 2 inch kit puts the seat adjustment out of commission

Shit , at least we got the opportunity to request a pushbutton start. I think it should have been the other way around... We should have gotten to design the car / suggest the engine specs and that Toyota Camry design guy should have been able to suggest where to put the ash tray. :kiss:
