Ordered a pair of driver seat risers from http://www.lrsoffroad.co.uk/content/seat-rails on Thursday evening and they arrived on Saturday morning (Good work LRS and in the Christmas rush).
Anyway fitted this morning, needed to file a couple of mm out of the back of them as they forced the mounting holes at the back to be a fraction off centre. Small squirt of black gloss on the ends and good as new (not visible anyway). Result - very good; I now sit about 3cm higher and have the seat position on just one click further back than the maximum standard position and find it much better than standard. I am 6'1'' and don't feel so cramped now. |

I'm only 5'10" and they are brilliant for me too - much better driving position and able to rest elbows better on window and centre cubby (also raised) Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

I'm 6'2 1/2" and can sit very comfortably in my 110 DC driver's seat, without having it all the way back (about 3 clicks from max)
Hence, have not found the need to go for any rails, and TBH quite confused about the need for 'em. 2001 TD5 110 DCPU in Bonatti Grey |

Sort of wish I was 6 foot something and didn't need the rails... Tell someone you love them today because life is short. But shout it at them in German because life is also terrifying and confusing... |

we went down to the go kart rack and brought some plastic karting spacers cut them down to the right size and stuck these in they were perfect and at £5.00 for a set you couldnt go wrong that was in the old 110 now dads got something similar to the lrs ones they make hell of a difference
