Elise S2 Seat improvement

[cre8toruk]

Hi all,

Apart from ripping out the seats and spending 300gbp + on a new set of seats is there any way that anyone knows of of improving the standard seats? Some sort of cushion or something ?

Any cheaper /better seats available ?

Anyone tried one of these ? I'd be interested to know if they're any good or not...

Better in what way? What do you find bad about the current ones and which seats do you have?

Well ha ha.. good question... I'm pretty sure they're the standard S2 seats with the old pumpy up thingy (lumbar support)... just could do with a bit more padding for my old bones :-)

It could of course just be a question of getting used to it.

Doesn't actually look like it's designed to fit an Elise seat, they've just added it to the description. The side bolster bits would be folded in on the sides of the seats against your ribs.

Same item is also advertised for the Rover 25, Saab 9-3, Peugeot 308, etc.

Yeah all true, but I guess they mention it because you "Can" use it in an elise....

So where do you buy Probax seats from ? Dealer only ? No self fit ?

I suppose it depends how long you have had it.
