Noble seats

[AR]

Just wondering if Sparco Milanos will fot an M12 GTO? My wife has had back surgery and still has a herniated disc. The OEM CF Recaro seats on the last car we had ( nsx-r ) were too hard for her on long trips.

If they fit, any idea on where to get brackets, etc.

Cheers,

AR

Does anyone know which seats the 3R and M400 use?

The guy i bought my car off had seat cussions made for the bottom of the seat, makes it very comfy. I use one for my back as i need the seat moved forward, that is also very comfy. I think you could get a perfect fitting cushion for your wifes seat covered in matching material far cheaper than swapping seats. Sure the holsterers next to the factory could do it with their eyes closed. Is there any other reason to change the seats?

I've been driving around in a Cayman S for the last few days, and I have to say that we both find the standard 3R seats more comfortable than the Porsche's. Maybe I have got the right combination of the 1000 adjustments yet. I'd try the seats first before you go changing them. I've got a bad back that I find them perfect (but I know what it's like with bad backs, everyone is different).

I found there was no thigh support in the Noble and the place next to the factory said they could fit thigh bolsters but at a cost of about £500 per seat! so I didn't bother...

It's not a bad car to have whilst the Noble's in for a bit of though. In fact, there's more than one thing I like about it over the Noble :-

1) It's better on fuel. A lot better.
2) The woman on the satnav has a nice voice.
3) er...did I say about the fuel already?

Yes yes Porsche lovers, storage, starts first time blah blah ZZzzzz. It is blue though, which is nice!

They mean nothing since "you've come out"

Another reason for the Milanos would be for easier access to store stuff.

They're a bit of a squeeze according to this:- www.nobleforums.com/showthread.php?t=2042&page=2

New fixings are required as well.

I think that the M400 seats are these ones:- www.sparcousa.com/pseats_street.asp?id=199

Also remember the M400 tunnel is smaller than (most) 3R's and all 3's and 2.5's so a seat that fits in an M400 may not in the older cars....
