I have Stratos front seats compliments of workcare . My back is stuffed.
two things you;ll need to do,
1 is cut some rubber for between the rails and floor as the road vibration will kill you.
2 is lift it up 40-50mm between rails and seat as they are lower than OE.
Mine have the lumber pump and find after a long drive I'm good to go just need to get a passenger
one at some stage.

Don't know the price of stratos. But I'm researching all this at the moment myself.
As I have a poor back and the long drives kill me.
I've been looking at recaro seats. The expert L I'm looking at is like 3500 tho.

I've tried a recaro available at ARB -(approx $2000) while comfortable i found the middle height side bolster contains a hard support bar and is very uncomfortable getting out. not good if inand out a lot during the week.

Yeah there is no where really for me to try them out up here as no one wants to stock them as they don't move that quickly.
I've just been tacking people's word for it, and have always had recaros in my subarus.

From memory a single Stratos 3000 with lumber and rails was $1200
but if you like I can get a firm price for 2. seat only $700???
A lot use the better seat for the driver and even though still a great seat the lower spec for
the passenger. Side bolsters are not huge and that along with shoulder support I've found them to be
a great seat. I'm not a fan of the big bolsters as its ok getting in but as we that
are injured or no as flexible know ,not so easy getting out. Plus they are not really ideal for 4x4ing
