TVR S1 seat swaps - what fits?

[YeS1tis]

Getting my first TVR this Saturday. An S1 with vinyl seats in poor repair.I would like to fit leather seats and have a mig welder to alter mounts if necessary. So far I have found references to people using seats from other TVRs, which fit straight in, from XJS Jags, and from MX5s. Are there any others? I thought MG F/TF might do it, or MR2. Any tips would be appreciated. The hood is also tatty. Anyone found an inexpensive way to refurb.?
Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. The hood is baggy and scored over the roll hoop, and the rigid panels are scored. The window is fair. I plan to construct a hardtop from scratch and I'll let you know how that goes! I can't see any decent MX5 seats for sale near Lincoln at present, but they do sound an easy fit! I might look in a couple of breaker's yards in sunny Shorpe - you never know.

Those Cerb seats are very cool. So are those retrimmed originals. I must confess I'm looking for a less expensive option! I shall keep the original seats in storage but I'll be quiet happy to fit non-TVR seats as long as they look OK and are comfortable.

Thanks Phillpot, I remember that my dad's 1965 Corsair GT had 'Ambla' upholstery, a sort of posh plastic in it's day. It was used on the Jaguar 240 and 340 models as standard - sacrelage! Does no-one know of any other seats that will fit the S series, apart from the MX5, XJS and other TVR seats? There are some MR2 seats for sale locally but I read somewhere that these are wider than MX5 seats so unsuitable for an MX5 at least, so maybe also for a TVR. The passenger seat in mine is OK but the seams on the base and backrest are split, presumably due to the support failing. Only about 36 hours to go until I get it and then I can get stuck in!
