New seats for £30
 

Hi guys

Iv been searching for some seats for a while, and whilst very impressed with the very high quality of the triton seats, i find it hard to part with that kind of money for something that im only going to scratch. After a search on ebay i found these for just £30:

They are good quality mouldings, obviously you get what you pay for but im well impressed.


They only just fit, and i mean only just, but they are pretty good quality for the money. Obviously the tranny tunnel shrouds gonna be another 2mm but luckily the seats have a good 20mm lip all the way around so i should be able to trim them a bit. They are also a wide fit, if my lass can get her arse in them then they will fit any fatty!

I told the young lad i bought them of i would reconmend them on the forum if they were any good, so here you go



Regards

Nathan

She might read this forum and you are dead !!!!

Is the auction still running ?

nah, shes currently chained to the sink, in the shed.:D

Hes got them as a buy it now, 30 quid plus postage, i think its still running

Cheers Nathan.

They look like they will give you a dead arse in no time.....:eek:

I have one of these on a go kart they are quite comfy but i havent driven the go kart on the road for any distance :-)

Second look I am inclined to agree Mark,but they are wide for us bigun's.:)

point taken, i had a brew in the shed whilst working on the side panels today. After half an hour in the seat i felt like i had deep vein thrombosis. Looking at the seats i think they are elise bases that havent been uphostered (put me right if im wrong). I have a good friend who reupholsters old car interiors so i think il get him to upholster the seats with a bit off padding and some sort of waterproof fake leather.

I also made the mistake of riveting the side panels on at -5 degrees, i didnt think about it at the time but i bet they will warp like the starshop enterprise when it warms up:(

Nah... When heated from -5 to 30 degrees the aluminium will expand 0.7 mm per 1 meter, whereas the steel chassis will expand 0.4 mm per meter. I doubt this will have any observable effect.

He has sold them all anyway.
