Ok...since one was never available any suggestions for me on solving this problem?:

My girlfriend is on the short side and she complains about having to look through a distorted portion of the windshield, obviously on the lower portion as you get closer to the cowl. Besides from being annoying every so often it will give her a headache or make her nauseous.

Has anyone done a retro fit from a different vehicle, or know of an aftermarket seat that would sit higher than stock?

You could just use a hundred spacers and some really really long bolts under the brackets...but then it would be very permanent.

This would work, but don't do it.

It's unsafe.

I have you tried to find a power track off a driver seat, I know alot of cars, you can take a driver seat track and use it on a passenger. I did it on a mustang. Its just a thought.

"Manually" it slides on the track, is there a manual height adjustment that i don't know about on the seat?

No offense but how tall is she??
But really, I've heard this before, where a part of our windshield causes head aches and nausea.
