OK, that shows a lot.

Of course seats can depend on what you want and what kind of budget
you're looking into. If you want to go the cheap route you might
consider something like this in the color you want

That's about as cheap as you can get but I would think that the higher
back would be much more comfortable with little extra cost

And build up the base to the height you prefer or get or make a short
pedestal

Making a pedestal isn't hard to do either. The guy I mentioned before
that put the junk yard seats in a boat also did another only with
homemade pedestals. Instead of *buying* a pedestal like this:

my friend made one very easily, because unless you want something
that's telescopic, or is going to cost a wad and not work or fit what
he did was got a large pipe flange and a pipe to fit the seat base
that he bought. screwed the pipe into the flange, anchored the flange
to the floor before he mounted the wood on the base box and it looked
something like this:

he then cut the pipe to fit the base of the seat mount, then mounted
the wood with the hardware on top of the boxes. The wood he used
capped the boxes.

with some DIY, he had less than a hundred per side in both front
seats.

BTW, if you attempt this, and if you don't use a slider or a swivel,
and don't like how it sits, you can always redo it easily.

At least that's my view.
