The seats that come with SS cars with Recaro option might have more headroom. The owners with the Recaro option report no shortage of headroom. Based on this, I decided to give powered seats a chance, so I ordered the exact seats we get with SS cars when ordered with Recaro option; powered with SS logo. I am very hopeful this seat will do the trick. Otherwise, I'll eventually move on to full race seat, or just stick with stock SS seat, which provides sufficient headroom.
