I have a set of cobra daytona seats on their way to me but cobra don't make a specific sub frame for my car (its way too boring!).

I want to get a set of adaptors or complete frames made who should I go to for it?

Anyone else had to do this?

If you can't use universal subframes I would enquire at the local blacksmith to see if they fancy making some - sounds funny, but they frequently undertake all kinds of bespoke metal fabrication to provide a break from horse shoes and hideous wrought iron gates.

Have you got access to a vice and a drill? If you have just do it yourself, took me a day to make some brakets for some cheap bucket seats in the MR2, then another day to make some brakets to fit the MR2 seats in my Ginetta

Two of my friends are blacksmiths; this is just the kind of stuff they'll take on if you turn up at their forge on Saturday morning.

You could try Googling 'fabricator', but the companies that show up locally look like they'd be much more interested in fitting a factory out with handrails or doing some structural steelwork.
