Are you guys finding that one additional inch of height due to the thicker seat cushion is providing that much boost so that your driving position is now impaired? The EV seats in mine boost me up a little, and about the only noticeable difference is that my left knee now brushes the turn signal stalk when signaling a left turn, but that's it. Everything else is great.

The seats on mine are not so high that I have the turn signal problem. I notice that ingress/egress is slightly more difficult due to the large wheel (non P/S). I also notice my head is a lot closer to the roof Rolling Eyes
I think eventually I will adapt but I can tell you that for me, the turn signal problem would not be tolerable.
If I had it to do over I would hold out for Westy replacement seats.
