    Thanks Steve. Just for clarification you comment about the fit being questionable was referring to the 18s? No issues with the 17s? At my height I need to be as far back as possible. Will the 17s allow for mounting so the back of the seat is pretty much at the rear cockpit wall?

    The 17's go all the way back. The 18's would not go back as far. Hard to describe with all the odd angles in that area but I could see that the 18's would have cost me over an inch of leg room so I sent them back.
