Frank,
There must be more foam or other packing in that seat area or
exceptionally thick seat cushions. I am 6 ft (72 in, 183 cm) tall and
I do not have any trouble fitting in my XS with standard Europa seat
cushions. I still have, at a minimum, another 2 in (5 cm) of head
space.
Work more with those cushions before you go to the trouble of
replacing the doors/windows.
Check six,
