Moving seat further back/down?

Moving seat further back/down?
I'm not sure if anyone has done anything on this or not; ran a search but came up empty.
I'm looking/hoping for a relatively easy way to get a little more room out of the FL seat. It just won't go quite far enough back or down for my liking. Not to the point where it's super uncomfortable or my chest is in the steering wheel, but there's not as much space as I'd like to have. Everything seems to be functioning properly, so it's not a matter of something being broken...
I was curious to see if anyone's found a way to improve space for the driver (aside from removing some height and width from myself).

Well, I do believe there is a way to make sure the seat is in it's lowest setting. There are 3 bolt holes that the seat can be set in on the lower frame. Remove the seat (just 4 bolts and 2 plugs) and make the change. I don't think there is any aft adjustment. You can push the steering wheel in with the adjustment.
If you need more leg room, you may want to pull the seat out and sit in the back. I think that's what Shak did when he had a 850.

The steering wheel is in it's furthest forward and up position. Not a ton of fore-and-aft adjustment to be had in it.
Not quite sure that I'm tall enough to pull a Shaq. Honestly, I'm only looking to pull another inch or so out of it. I don't need a ton more adjustment.
My last car was a Dodge Magnum. The space in the front of that thing spoiled me a bit.
