The front seats in the late models have a pivot arrangement that moves a
toothed gear sector in the opposite direction at a faster rate, but only
for a limited distance.  The gear is what the seatback adjustment lever
engages directly.  If you want full travel, the seat pivot needs to be
re-engineered.
