Tuscan seats in Chimaera
Discussion
I have done this and its not a good job, but a fantasic upgrade for the Chimaera.
The only changes need to the Chimaera for fitting are to make 2 new rear seat bolt holes in the floor. While I was at it, I have added steel bars to bolt the seats to attached to the chassis. This improves the safety of the seat fitting, bringing it in line with the current cars being made.
As for photo's I will do some, but at the moment I am layed up with the flu so it will be the weekend before I can take them.
Tuscan seats give a better driving position in the car as well as taking the seat cushion out for those eager speed runs on track or on the open road.

OK guys lets get real.
The seats which I got were in a crashed Tuscan, they were stored outside for almost a year. They had, snow, rain, frost, moss and god know's what bugs on them, but they cleaned up with a power hose, then dried out, washed again, dried out and given 3 good leather treatments.
This cost me a total of £180 for the pair. I am luckly as my car has a black interior and the seats are black. Also as the seats which I have are full leather there was not much problem with cleaning them up.
Get your breakers to start quoting real prices. To do that you need to bargain them down.
Hope this helps,
