what is the overall length of the new seat compared to the old seat? i definitely want to sit up higher, but i also do a lot of doubling when the boys and i are snowboarding, so i still need the length of the old seat.

You will have a hard time doubling on the new seat!
There is no way to double on the 2010 seat, my wife rides with me when we go up north to the cabin so I kept my old seat..........there will be a bit of drama putting the old mounting hardware on but I have to keep her happy too. On second thought I think she just needs her own M8.....that is great justification for a backup sled "sorry babe there isn't enough room on the seat change cat did, we had better get you your own"
Im sure having the bottom of the new seat slope in twords the front of the sled and the bottom of the old seat slope twords the back of the sled creates the illusion that it is shorter than it already is
4 inches is quite a bit when you are already riding "nutt-to-butt". i guess that isn't gonna work for me. might just have to experiment with making a stock seat taller.

Just new here but thought I'd offer this. We just went through this 2 weeks ago with my wife. She was going to buy a 2010 M6 but the seat issue came up when she needs to double our little guy when he doesn't want to ride his own machine. The seat was going to be to short. At the sled show in Edmonton we found a new factory seat off a 09 M that had been custom done. They had raised it 4" inches but left the length. She loved the height on the 2010 seat but hated the length so this was the perfect solution. Picked up the seat and a non current 09 M6 for her and she is happy. Here's a couple pic's and you can see the height difference. Her seat is comparable to the seat height on my 2010.
thanks man. this looks like exactly what i need.
No problem. The women have to be happy or riding can be hell. The guy I bought this from was working the "Mountain Magic" booth. I don't know if they did/do the seat mod's there or not but it might be worth a call.

Hey do you know what town there out of?
They are located in Edmonton, Alberta. 780-474-9400. I was just on the website and it looks like they do the seat mod's there in house.

in the catalog i see the boss seats, and a custom xp seat. no mention of stock seat modification. am i missing it somewhere???
You are correct. Went back to the site again and saw that it says XP seats. That is the place I bought this one though so I'm sure they can help you out.
