Alex how thick is your wood spacer for the seats...... not sure I will need any with my 6'2" frame... driver's seat will be set for my comfort.
Bob, I have two spacers stacked onto eachother. One is 1" thick, the other 1,5". The thicker ones have a part number stamped/painted on one side. I can't find a part number on the thinner ones, allthough they show traces of Khaki Green on the surface normally hidden by the thicker block, so I presume they are original. (allthough I am not sure they were always factory fitted!)

I agree about probably not needing them...I remember in the thread on clearance between steering wheel and knees it was concluded that raising the seat, makes clearance worse. I will still be making a new set of spacers though, just to be able to work out the best option for steering wheel clearance, comfort and view of the road....That is, when I get to that part of the resto
