Odd question: what is the overall height of the Cayenne’s front seats? Specifically from the attachment rails to the top of the head rest. If anyone wants to run out to the garage with a tape measure, I’d appreciate it. Thank you!

Do you want the values at each end of the seat height adjustment range as well?
Or would just one measurement be enough?
Also - true perpendicular height from the line of the seat rail, or e.g. the angled line from rear rail bolt to headrest top at a "normal" seat angle?

Given the range of adjustment possible, it's not a trivial measurement to get right as your expectation and someone's measurement may differ.

I’m looking for the true vertical height of the seat assembly at its most erect angle, and highest and lowest position. I now also would like to know the difference between the height of the seat rails themselves since the inboard seat rail is positioned slightly higher than the outboard rail.

My ultimate goal is to determine whether a set of Cayenne seats can be adapted to a custom application with tighter head room constraints, and if the fit is initially incompatible, whether the seat’s own adjustments could achieve proper fit.

Thank you!

I've mislaid/lost my tape measures. All of them :/ Two standard reel measures, and a tailor's cloth tape. I only have a steel ruler available right now and that's not ideal for what you are looking for.

Apologies - it may be a while before I can give you an answer to this...

Not a problem. I appreciate that you responded to this thread.
