Has anyone got Tuscan seats in their Griff? I'm tempted by the idea & I seem to remember reading somewhere that it is physically possible. Sometimes get a bit uncomfortable in the originals on longer drives. Would love to see photos and hear feedback on fit/comfort from anyone who's done this mod.

I saw and sat in Tuscan seats in a nice grey Griff at the Britcar this weekend. They go in nicely.

Thanks, but that address doesn't seem to exist. I found www.thegriffithpages.com but it's down...

Red - that was me at Britcar with the Grey Griff / Tuscan seats (thanks for the compliment), & good luck on your ongoing Griff renovation project.

OP - I have done 3 euro trips with these seats fitted & plenty of other millage, I love them & find them more containing & comfortable than the existing fitments, (Griff used originally with old seats as a daily drive for 4 years).

Great on the track as well, even when you spin & come off .. but that another story.

Go for it !

Do the Tuscan seats rob you of any headroom? I seem to recall that was one of the few downsides?

Sonic, is that your car being advertised at RG ?
Tuscan seats do look great. I can vouch for the Cerb seats too. A great improvement over the std Griff seats.

I know its not a griff but give you a feel of how they look
I think they are the best looking seats, very comfortable with lumber support

My first one had i think ? Cerb seats, still not ideal for me , but better than the Griff ones, which are very poor, too much shoulder support and nothing for the lower back.

Yep. Running like a dream, just not getting enough use.

The original TVR chaps up in Blackpool. Previous owner had it done. I think it was Surface and Design, but all my paperwork is with RG so can't be sure. It is a terrific mod - slips into the boot so easily and doesn't take up much space.
