Easy seat entry work-around
 

In previous threads there have been complaints that the steering wheel can be set to automatically move to allow better entry to the driver's seat but the seat doesn't move with the wheel. (Well maybe it does in later models but not in my 2008 or earlier GTs.) I prefer the seat to move like in my Corvette and my wife's Lexus. So I have created my own "easy seat" entry procedure.


I programmed my memory seat #1 button to be my driving position. Then I programmed the #3 button to have the seat slide all the way back. Before getting out of the car I hit the #3 button. Upon getting back in I hit #1.


So I don't have to look at the buttons to find #1 and #3 I have placed an adhesive backed rubber cabinet door cushion on both buttons. That way I can feel the two buttons I need to use.


These two photos show how I added a tactile key to easily find the buttons.

Great idea! Thanks for sharing.

GOOD IDEA WITH THE CABINET DOOR CUSHIONS -- I also used position #1 and #3 but have to feel the position to get the right one. Incidentally, after 2 years I finally learned that just pressing the button and quickly releasing it the seat would continue to move to the right position. Guess I'll have to read the manual some day.
