I wonder what the difference point is, like the ratchet in the lowering mechanism has a different stop? I wonder if the floor or the sliders could be different.

Were both cars you drove coupes?

I really appreciate your experience. While it’s a bummer I lost a couple hundred bucks on the manual base seats, I was feeling pretty defeated and resigned to like a sunroof delete or something. Sounds like there’s still hope!
Yep, both cars were coupes - one sport package and one base. There's no way that there's a difference in the floor, so it's definitely something in the sport v standard seat frame. I see what you mean with RealOEM only showing one manual adjust frame. The difference is so significant that I feel like it has to be more than foam thickness. Real head scratcher.

I'm going to pick up the new car tomorrow so I'll try to remember to grab a measurement for you.

And delete the sunroof anyway! More headroom AND 35lb out of the roof!
