How high would people say the FRP seats are when compared to the standard leather seats? I find my Thunder seats have me so high (despite adjustments) that the rear-view mirror and a-pillar block my vision to the left and right! Considering replacing with Millenium or FRP seats.
 
This is about the best thread I could find on the matter and there's not much in the way of evidence

THE QUEST FOR THE LOWER SEAT

Subjectively I remember the FRP seats being lower but then it was long time ago that I've sat in either.
 
cheers, the search feature doesn't work very well on the work's PCs. I think I'll try to find a friendly FRP owner nearby who'll hopefully let me have a sit.
 
I had Recaros in my car, but due to constant sliding around swapped for Sparcos. While they are pretty similar, I would swear the Sparcos are actually higher than Recaros...

I went up the breakers and got another mirror with a shorter/more offset arm:

I'll probably be getting a new windscreen soon anyway. If the old one ends up staying I'll sort that out. It's more the A-pillar that's the issue. If I lean back any further I can't reach the wheel!
