I have wondered before why someone doesn't do that panel like a corvette. That would be awesome if done right.

Something like this would give you the added leg room and be cool as heck all in one! Well I think so anyway. I bet you could get another 3-6 inches out of it as far as leg room.
By the time you push the seat bottom further back the top would still get about 3" I would think. It would take a good metal guy though to get it right but very do able and it would also lead into a console in the floor.
