They are about 1.5" tall in the front and taper to nothing in the rear.
Stuff a 2X4 under the front of the seat and that's about where they fall.
It made a HUGE difference improving the comfort.
I'm using the Big & Tall Leather Seats with a little extra padding and a backer board under the seats.
My height is 5'10" with a 32" inseam if that gives you any idea for your comparison.
Good Luck & Mark's Stuff Works Great!

Which seat mount is it from Breeze? And for reference... what seat actually comes with the Gen3 Coupe? Kirkey? (I have the aluminum high backs). Thanks! We have the same inseam, GoDaddy!

They just kick the front up so that the seat rocks back a bit.
The angle just gives me a feeling of being in the seat with my legs supported.
When the seats were flat on the floor they just didn't feel as comfortable, even when I had sliders mounted under them the angle didn't work for me.
Also, I don't know what seats come with the Type-65 Coupe.
Shown below are the brackets that I have:

Hope This Helps!

The recline offered by the Breeze mounts increases comfort a lot. They also provide a measure of adjustability fore and aft, although no one but me has ever driven my car, so I’ve never used that feature
