Default all hatch owners i need help with steering wheel and clear coat!

ok im 6'4 (only 16 ) and the steering wheel hits my knees a litte bit. ive moved the seat all the way back but it doesnt help. so is there an OEM or aftermarket wheel that i can buy to help me out? even if it was a half an inch shorter, would be good. and question number two, the cleacoat is peeling a little bit. should i get the car sanded down with the next year (not in a hurry) and get it recleared would that help? what could i use to clean the carpet and seats? TIA-

get some del sol seats and the jdm itr momo wheel... its about 2 inches less in diameter and the seats sit low so they will give you more head clearance also

you can get the wheel from hmotorsonline for about $220 shipped (highly recommended... steve is an awesome dude ) and the seats well they will prob run you around $150 or so unless you find a good deal

DelSol seats in an EG give you lots of headroom. I'm 6'3" and I have about 8inches between the top of my head and the headliner.
