Default Daimler Armoured Car seat mystery

I have part of a Daimler Armoured Car Gunners seat post (which I believe to be original) which is rusted off at the base. I have been told from a reliable source that the complete mount stands 10 inches high overall. However the piece that I have is close to 12 inches long which doesn't include the casting that would have been attached to the bottom.

There's a couple of possibilities here... the seat posts came in different heights (the parts book doesn't indicate this), the post that I have is off a different vehicle (possible I guess but it does have Daimler markings) or the 10 inch measurement isn't right (also unlikely but it is possible)... So it's a mystery at this stage.

Is anyone out there able to confirm if the 10 inch dimension is indeed correct or if there were other vehicles that use a similar seat assembly?
