Seats.....need a change.

[silverback mike]

Hi all!
Year's ago I remember a fellow chimpster swapped seats. I am not a fan of the standard seats and fancy something a bit more supportive. Am I right in assuming mx5 seats fit? Has anyone done this and if so, how difficult is it?
Thanks in advance

The first Chim I had came with Intatrim Odyssey seats, they were very supportive, just too small for my frame, but they were great and seemed well regarded. On a side note, if you have standard Chim seats and are looking to get rid, I might be interested!

Mine have only done 30k so in very good condition. Ivory leather. Happy to whizz them on if I find similar

Keep me in mind if you do find some replacements!

Put Mark1 Cerbra seats in mine, comfy but had to take the runners off as they are higher.

rare as hens teeth though.

Decided to sell your chim seats yet Peter?

£100 for the seats which were in black from a Lotus dealer. About £300 or thereabouts to upholster in matching leather.

MX5 seats are supportive, I have one on the driver side however tried to fit the matching one on the passenger side and the roof won't go over it....
One day, now I've got a garage sorted I may try again.

Tuscan seats also fit, but are again in the hens teeth category.
