    Those angled bars do suck, don't they? The seat just fits with almost no adjustment range

    Yes they do- I may be cutting out the drivers side and welding in a new brace that does not get in the way. I wont know until I get the pedals/steering wheel in.

    When I was picking up my 818S in August one of the FFR guys ( no name to be mentioned) told me it was OK to get rid of those bars in front of the seat. I made the comment that it impeded much forward and aft movement. So take this as you want. I don't need them removed for me but, I may for a customer car if needed.
