I found the Metro seat pretty uncomfortable when I first got it. It was one of the first mods I did - adding padding to increase lumbar & thigh support (making the seat more "bucket-y").

Keep your eye open for a post-'95 vehicle next time so you can get a ScanGauge in it. Or at the very least get one with electronic fuel injection and build yourself a MPGuino.
