Haven't seen the height measured that way, but it should work out about right. If you have more padding, they must take that into account. Problem with seat height is that we are using quick and dirty methods to quickly measure height with tape measure, something that approximates the height calculation in the ADR.

But am I not following something here, where did these 510mm & 550mm measurements come from, your engineer. These are not ADR requirements and ADR 3/03 certified seats can be narrower than that.
