Discussion
Have just put the car to bed for the winter and started a list of jobs to do!!! Top of the list is new seats, as although mine are in very good condition a tour of the highlands this year left me with back pain, having been trawling through the forums could not see if anyone had tried or fitted boxter or rx8 seats which I like the look of and know suit my rather bulky frame 
I have tried loads of seats, but almost without exception they either won't fit the floor space, or are too wide at the top.
My first choice for comfort would be Saab 9-5 seats, 2006 onwards, but again I don't imagine they would pass the width test.
Lotus Elise seats fit, MX5 seats fit, and I have even heard of Jaguar XJS recaros being fitted (with liberal use of shoehorn).
Tuscan seats come up occasionally, fit and are comfortable, but expect some serious wallet pain.
This is halfway through fitting them, one done, one to go. The good thing is that, with the Tuscan runners attached, you can bolt the front fixings through just in front of the cross outrigger and down through the outrigger corner plates (using 100mm M8 bolts), which means your seat is properly secured for the first time ever. I hasten to add that is NOT my caravan, I have never owned a caravan and I never will own a caravan.....
Another alternative is seats made by Intatrim at Telford - the Odyssey II from memory.

I looked at the odyssey II seats at a show earlier this year and was rather impressed by them.

Not made the jump to purchase them yet, but they are on the list of things to do. Reading other posts they do seem to fit, although I have not got as far as trialling one yet.
I do like the colour way of the seats you have in the second photo QBee - that would suit my car as well.

These are the Intatrim seats before fitting, Great price and fit very well (cant find the fitted pics).
Great service and you can spec most colours and combos to match your trim.
The harness holes are an option and I opted for these to break up the head rest and the lettering is an option too. I even had extra foam added to the passenger seat for the sensitive area of SWMBO
