Not mine. They don’t recline near that far.

Yes, remove seats, follow instructions, reinstall... a lot of Zl1 owners don't know that this can be fixed

Hmmm... buy a new 2019 or just take the seats out of my 2018 and drill out the stopper.....hmmmm....I think I'll take 30 minutes of my time instead of spending a lot of money since I'll have seats that recline further than the 2019s.

All for free!

I guess if you want to take a nap.

I'm thinking you haven't sat in a 17 or 18. They almost don't go back at all so if you don't like the 19 recline you the other ones would drive you nuts.

LOL no it's not going to lay completely back, but I can assure you for cruising you can get your lean on if you want now.

Major difference and the very 1st thing I notices with a big sigh of relief. Brought this up to Al O the day I picked up my car and he just smiled and shook his head.

I wanted to REALLY bad but like you decided against in on my 17.

Now I don't usually drive in full recline. Still have a little more to go which is nice.
