Modify a Crossfire ?

I have put my eye on a nice Crossfire, but due to my length of 200 cm, the
chair will not retract enough and tilt the backrest enough to get a
comfortable position behind the wheel.

Is it possible to remove the separation wall between the chairs and the
luggage compartiment, move the chair sliders a bit backward and solve the
problem ?

I have a better solution. Don't buy a Crossfire.

The Crossfahrt doesn't get much love on this newsgroup. The only
Chrysler part on it is the ignition key. Its a re-badged Benz.

Well, for us Dutch people in our small country below sea level.. it is
pretty much an American car.

And as the label is Chrysler, I think I can address the case in the Chrysler
news group :-)

So please let som tekky stand up and tell me about the separation
wall.......

Why would Daimler have sold the Crossdresser in Europe?

You will have better luck asking in the Mercedes forum.

The Crossfire is really a Mercedes SLK320.

I highly doubt that anyone that owns a Crossfire reads this newsgroup.

Well,
it can be a Mercedes (that Idid not know), but ...

I presume it is to be serviced by a Chrysler dealer isn't it ?

And it seems valid to assume that Chrysler dealers/mechanics do visit this
newsgroup doesn't it ?

And where should I go else ? :-)


Any Chrysler mechanic that does service these models could react and dig
into my question. I don't expect regular owners to do so, as the question
is beyond the avarage owner's skills I think.

That which you propose is not a service operation, it's a modification
and a major one at that.

You need to find which newsgroup professional basketball players
frequent, they would probably be able to recommend a chop shop to help
you.
