are your seats bolted to floor or on runners/mounts?

I had this problem I am only 5' 6" so I reduced the height by triming down slightly. I did plan to fit a clear perspex trim but never did.

Which screen is it? the MK one or a carbon mods one etc? I had to fettle the tabs on the ends of my carbon mods one to let it sit a little lower - I'm 5'8 - couldn't raise the seat any higher or the roll bar would be useless.

Ignore the one in my avatar - is yours like this:

If it is and it has the tabs on the end that wrap around the edge of the scuttle you could cut them off to lower the angle. Worked for me. My seat is a triton one on runners and a 3/4 spacer.

Ah ok, cant tell if it has tabs on at each bottom corner that fold over the dash - if it does take them off and you can change the angle, although you might have to add some more fixings to keep it from flexing.
