do you sit higher, lower or pretty much the same in those?

http://www.recaro.com/ and you sit higher. The driver who is 187 cm mentioned that.

That's great! Couldn't find Recaro in Vancouver though. Could you ask him which model/typ is bought?

Thanks

They look like Hilux surf recaros.

Update:
We have tried a lot of different aftermarket seats, but all the seats are way to big, specially if you want to open the engine compartment. We looked around at junkyards. Found seats they might fit, but they were also already worn down and actually not better then the original seats. Therefore I checked out Fiji Upholstery the other day and brought them one seat. They replaced parts of the foam, added extra foam for the lumbar area, reinforced and changed the springs and stitched a few open seams together. I installed the seat today. What a difference!!! Extra firm Delica seat for $150 :) Hope that prevent sore backs after long drives.

Hey,
That was a long journey from problem to solution, good work!
Was that 150 for both seats?(hope so)

Right on!

Nop, per seat. If you think about how much a car seat is (even the junkyard-version) and how much work they spent to repair it, then it's actually a bargain.

Just thumbs up on this upholstery project. Just came back from our 10000km road trip and this is one of the best mods I did for sure. No back problems anymore after 10h behind the steering wheel.

Hey Sergiy,
Have found out what kind of Recaro seat model they used?

Sorry Felix, the fellow replied with 'I have no info to add...'. He sold his van and here is the link to his pictures:
