As do the ZL1 seats!!!! From the factory!!!!

The only logical explanation I can gather is the convertible does have less rear seat room than the coupe and thus the front seat couldn't recline all the way back. So they welded these limiters on to prevent people from burning out the motor trying to recline in the convertible, and used the same seats in the coupe as a cost cutting measure.
I completly agree, went on a Labor Day road trip and the lack of a recline pass seat made my other half say we should have taken the KIA Optima I also like to take a break when driving and the lack of recline is dissapointing to me, I would def be up for doing this mod.
