I was browsing around at lunch time and noticed that you can get a set of adjustable brackets to fit an FC.
In order to adjust the distance between your knees and the steering wheel. I beleive some FC's have no tilt.

Does anyone know if such a thing exists for the FD

Like most people over 6' I have the luxury of being able to hold the wheel with the top of my knees, allowing my hands free to applaud myself for this skill.

I bought the FD despite this problem as I love the car. It is starting to annoy me all the same.
I still haven't ventured under the dash yet to see if I can FAB my own brackets. The ones I saw looked just like longer bolts and spacers.

Any suggestions or Ideas would be Tops

 

The best you can do is get a smaller dia wheel - the wheel from a MIATA is 10<>20mm smaler and a near direct fit, the 99+ fd RZ Nardi wheel is 30<>40mm smaller and is a direct fit (but hard to find & expen$ive) or an aftermarket wheel that will require an adapter and you will lose the airbag and need to work out the cruise control buttons mounting & wiring (if you have cruise, same goes for the Miata wheel)
