Hi all.
Im' putting standard defender seats back into my 90 shortly although i would like a little more leg room, i was wondering if seat risers would be worth utilising if bulkhead still in place as seems to me that pushing back would mean having to tilt seat forwards more and being 6' tall, will be higher mean having to bend forward much more to see out of the window.

Its so difficult to picture if would work or not!!

Thoughts appreciated
 
I have 40mm seat risers (home made from 40 Square box section). I would not have benefited without the bulkhead removed as the seats would not have moved back/reclined enough. I am just over 6"3 and I do have to stoop a bit. I would prefer the seat lower (well actually I would prefer the roof higher!). I also fixed my seat about 40mm further back.
 
I've got these, they keep the seat at the same angle although it is higher.
The seat is further back (around 50mm).


To get it to go a little further you need one of these ...
