My lady has the same compliant, the seat is way to low for her comfort level.

I keep a throw pillow in the trunk, which she'll sit on, so her eyes can clear the dash (she's small but carries a big punch)...lol...

I'm wondering if you just replaced the passenger seat, with a Driver seat, would that just work (plug and play)...???

Also wondering if the existing rails can be jury rigged and maybe raised (although this would be a permanent fix, but reversable)...
