Smart Seats
 
Dies anybody know the dimensions for Smart Seats? I thought they might be an Option.

Anything to do with "Smart" and the Roadster is offensive !:p

MX-5 seats can be used
 
I've bought a pair of MX-5 seats and used an angle grinder to cut away a lot of metal that was sticking out and also part of the hinging mechanism. Seat and backrest were welded in a fixed position. It's tight but they fit into the book chassis. Sliders included.

I will get dimensions as soon as I find time to measure them in my friend's Smart ;)

EDIT:
OK - so Smart seats are 46cm wide (hard part), so I think they are useless without modifications.

Another helpful dimension - Smart steering rack is about 53-54cm (it was wet, and couldn't measure precisly without geting dirty) ... but it's definitely not a quick rack ;)

To be honest, Spud took me out in his car and I was surprised how comfortable his were even though they have no padding at all. Even they are quite expensive though.
