Okay, I think I have plenty of info to work from now.� I was worried about the actual fit and am assured that this is feasible.� Height and adjustability will be dealt with if, as and when.� In fact, if height is an issue I figure I can just use�one EV seat on the passenger side (keeping the bride happy) and continue to suffer my own self.
�
Thanks for the advice, folks.� I'll be sure to document the transformation and post the results.� So tomorrow comes the fun part; spending money on the Westy.

Stephen, that's a good point. She finds herself too high, relative to
the floor. I find myself just higher than I am used to, relative to
the rest of the van, though I can see just fine in all directions. I
think it all comes down to a seat platform, higher than the engineers
intended.

> Interesting point, Miguel.  Did you find that the seat was too high
relative to the floor, or was it too high relative to the "rest of the
van?"  By that I mean did you find that you were sitting too high to see
out comfortably (front, back, sides) and/or work the controls?  Thanks!
