I ordered an XL with manual seats that don't rise. My wife is 5'0" and I am afraid that she won't be able to sit high enough to see well over the hood. Can anyone recommend a replacement seat that can be raised and lowered? Preferably non-electric? Any other solutions that my shorter folks have found?

I've been trying to find which versions of the Escape seats can be modified to work. Not so much the seat itself as the lower frame of the seat of full height adjustment, instead of just tilt/pivot.

They pivot off the front. just the rear section of the cushion is moving up and down... front half is stationary.
Still going to raise her height. Worse case scenario, buy an 8 way power drivers seat and put that in. They were optional on XL fleet trucks.
