Now there's a thought ......................Bolster pads for the sides :D

If I pull any more than 2G in a corner.......... I'll snap in half !!?? :eek: :o

I must admit I'm tempted at that price, they do look good. Trouble is I had a ride in a Westfield years ago at Curborough and the speed of direction change that thing was capable of was incredible, I really do think I need more lateral support than they will give otherwise I'd get a pair myself.

They would be a good starting point.

I take it they will pass the IVA

The Elise seats are uncomfortable due to the shape not being exactly arse shaped and don't hold you side to side...I sold quite a lot of seats to Elise owners;)

Will contrast nicely with my Red body work ...............Oh bugger ..........That was supposed to be top secret :D :D

Would have loved a pair of Triton seats, I just know that any rigid seat will FUBAR my back, big time.

Afraid in my case, comfort comes before looks .... If I am to get some real enjoyment from driving the Roadster :o

Naaaaaaa they are contoured and thos emidland jobs fall apart in no time at all, besides which get them wet and they take an age to dry out

It seems that with the seats, like a bed, its not easy to try out. The manufactures are all over the place and so a show is the only place to try a fitting. The only seats that I have tried so far are the triton in the Saturn car. These I could not fault. Are there any critical measurements regarding the seatbelt fixings on the roll bar.

Cheers

Peter
