Default CGT Seats

I am interested in learning if any of the taller drivers have retrofitted different seats in the CGT, other than the bucket ones.
Or if the factory had an option for non bucket seats, or specific arrangement to help finding a decent driving position for the tall ones. (around 6'4")

Not that I'm aware of. But the roof panels are detachable for good reason

factory has lower seat mounts.
that's the only way to lower seats (lower brackets) unless you bold seat without rail to CF floor
the shell seat has the think bottom so unlikely you find other seats that can go lower

I'm 6 2 plenty of room - remove cushion material to lower the seat guessing an inch or two which should do the trick.

6’2” fine but 6’4” not fine...

the buckets are way too upright to be comfy, which is pb number 2

Walter Rohrl is 6'5". The Carrera GT was never intended to be a comfortable car.
