If anyone is near the Pittsburgh, PA area, Pinball PA has a working version of the sit down (and I think the upright too?) for play. Played it and it is an experience that still holds up. I'd recommend a visit for anyone with an arcade interest or nostalgia itch: https://www.pinballpa.com/

There's one at the Barcade in Jersey City, too. You can even reboot and switch it to the Empire Strikes Back ROM.

I gotta say that Star Wars is one of the few games that didn't benefit from a sitdown version. Seat distance wasn't adjustable, right?

I don't believe it is adjustable. The sit down version does add to the experience/immersion factor, IMHO, by blocking out the surrounding games if nothing else.
