Default Modifying Sundunder seat

Got a Sundowner for the FATBOB due to the old lady being uncomfortable, but the sundowner makes me feel like Im riding over the bars.
Problem is im 6 2, and I like to sit into the bike. I also like the comfort of the sundowner. So I was wondering if any of you could point me in the right direction to were I could get my seat cushion lowered and cut back.
OR do you guys think I can tackle it myself?
Any posts I could read up on? I am in Cleveland, Ohio

Check out Rich;s cutom seats in Washington. He has a pretty good video on the website that shows what all is required.
