Default C3 Seat Help

What seats will fit the 1980 C3 and have head room for a 6'1"er?

Do you have glass tops? Since they do not have trim panels, the glass tops provide additional head room the fiberglass tops do not have.

How about installing a power seat floor board on the drivers side, & use your regular seat. Have a nice day. Gene
