I cant feel them under the seat when I sit down, and I only put spacer under the front of the seat... I have origional 67 buddy buckets that have been recovered, and anyone that has sat in them knows that there is very little adjustment in them. Just using the spacers in the front actually gave the seat a little lean to it, which I found more comfortable instead of the very straight up seating position they had before. With the added speakers and new headunit, I am more than pleased with the sound now. I may not have some big subs in there to rattle my bones, but I do actually have more bass output and a fuller sound. Just right for the 5 hour trip Im taking in it this weekend. Thanks to everyone for your help!

Looking forward to pictures. It's to bad the backs of you seats don't move like some of the buddy's.
