Recently got a lovely '10 plate dynamic panda, which we've all fallen for, but I'd really like to fit an adjustable height seat (I'm 6'2")

I guess ideally I'd keep the seat cushions and upholstery and just fit the adjustable mechanism, but maybe thats not so easy. I'd also like to keep the plastic 'hollow' headrest if possible.

Anyone done similar or advise pls?

I guess a main dealer could do this at a price?
 
You could also keep a close eye on breakers / ebay for some 100hp seats, but to be honest the height adjustabiltility is pretty poor. Maybe worth a trial in someones car though?! You can aways keep your own seats for refitting later.
 
Someone posted about the same swap not so long ago, keep a good eye out for breakers and ebay. I did manage to find one on ebay although the person had already changed their car by then. 100HP and Eleganza's are what you're looking for, although possibly a bit of work to change the covers over for yours (y)
 
I dont think the adjustment on the 100HP seats makes any difference to be honest. Its only the rear part of the cushion that adusts down so you still sit more or less at the same height but further back. The seats couldnt go any lower on the 100HP anyway as the subwoofer sits flush to the base.
