Emeraude CP 301 Rudder Pedals

Any Emeraude buffs out there who could tell me if it is possible to move the rudder pedals forward?
My pedals seem to be in the standard position approximately 4 inches behind the firwall, as I am long in the leg it would be good if they could be moved a couple of inches forward.

Thanks.....Pete

I don't think this would have been possible on our Emeraude (now damaged and belongs to the Insurer...) because the pedals would have fouled the firewall - they come pretty close as it is. Other Emeraudes may vary, of course.

I maintained and flew a CP 301 for a few years, and I think it would be very difficult to alter the rudder pedals. It may be worth having a look at the thickness of the seatback, as I think ours was a few inches thick.
Possibly fitting a thinner back would give you a bit of leg room.
