Bay Kombi front seats.

What front seats are best for bays?
A friend has subaru liberty ones in his and needs to repalce them as he is too tall and has to look through the tint band.
Are there any lower ones, new or secondhand, that are closer to the original height?
If not, we need to consider buying original ones either retrimmed or needing retrim, both considered.
Anyone with any ideas?

Thanks MR930.
Any idea which ones in particular.
I just had a look on Ebay and so many types.
We are happy to buy new or secondhand.

GL you will need something with a thin squab otherwise you will be hitting your head on the roof

Do you have the origionals ?? you can get new coco fiber squabs and back from you no who Also new trims TMI

Originals long gone and the metal behind the seats gone too.
That makes originals out of the question.
Just trying to zero in on the right seat for the job from other people's experience.

Origionals are impossible to find

Mazda 6 seats are really good I've been told... I have a pair down stairs and I can see how the would work well. Quick trim of the mounting points and runners will bolt straight to the floor and at a guess the wouldn't sit any higher than a bay seat.
