Calling all toilet risers!

I thought about getting a new, taller toilet for our Mountaineer. A friend had added a Thetford riser. He loves his set up. So when her went to CW last week I had him pick one up. I looked and saw that my toilet is a Sealand and on the box it says it will work with the 510 and 610 toilet. Of course I have the 210. Anyone have experience with this setup? I am curious before I try to get my petite body in there to remove the toilet only to find it wont work with my model. I cannot locate any additional info on the Thetford web site.

Thanks

Steve

I've had the Thetford riser on our toilet since September '07 and it is wonderful for someone who has had knee replacements and back surgery. However, our toilet is a Thetford Aqua Magic IV.

Update:

I got brave last friday and decided to take on the riser. I knew I was flirting with disaster as we were heading out for the weekend that afternoon. Should this cause a problem, I was in trouble.

I pulled the toilet with little trouble and located the spot to access the water line. I drilled the hole in the riser and the only issue was how to install the seals. A Sealand toilet seal is larger than the Thetford. I put the Small seal on the bottom of the riser and the original seal on top. Worked fine and after buying a flex hose at the local plumbing supply, hooked up the water and tested. Worked great. It took about 30 minutes to complete. Very easy and a very useful addition as far as I am concerned.
