Mazda MX-5 seats can be persuaded to fit into the Locost chassis (a bit narrower than Haynes): both foam and some of the pan has to be cut.

I have a pair of Honda CRX seats that could theoretically fit this way, the distance between the outermost hinges is around 450 mm, and the full width is over 500 mm unmodified. A lot of cutting would be required.
