This is one of the seats that I plan on installing.  When I tested it's position, I found that it was way high and quite uncomfortable.  My backside sits about 4" above the plywood when on this seat.  (Original plywood seat base sat at approx 17" from sole and I'm 5' 10").  I lowered the plywood seat top about 4 1/2".  Of course the box was epoxied together already.  Had to use a hand saw to get flush with the back and just cut the seat section out.   Hence the blemish (gouge) on the seat back.
