I run Non-Westy '87 Seats in my 84 and yes they are a bit taller, but like
Mark, it's not an issue with me either.

For those who don't know - Chris Turner is in Allentown, PA.

It's always the case that the west coast owners need the stuff and it's all
sitting in some Amish "burg" back east.  Such is the way of life ;-)

The west coasters can always check with (Jeff) VW Doka in Sacramento to see
if he's got the same thing.  vw.doka@gmail.com  Ya never know unless ya ask.
