Cheap seat

Hello everyone.

I know I’ve asked for one in here before but didn’t have any success, so thought I’d ask again in the hope someone had something.

I am after a seven style seat for my mx5. I suspect I am going to have issues fitting my Bimarco Futura in because th shoulder support is so wide. Does anyone have a cheap, tatty, fibreglass type bucket seat kicking about? The chap who made the ones for my Haynes said he can do me some, but he is a the way up in Lincolnshire which is a fair trot from me in Kent.

If anyone has anything in the south east area, tatty, cheap, ideally with side mounts (don’t want a lot do I!!) please drop me a message.

Thanks.

Due to their size shipping makes the whole deal a bit uneconomical cost wise. End up paying as much in shipping as the seat are worth.

I do have family in the area but am infrequently up there. But it’s an option. Thought I’d see if there was anything floating about on here before following up on that option.

Thanks again.

I have a couple of seats - I can get a seat as far south as Hailing Island - are you looking to bolt through the floor?

Hello Howard. They look ideal. I will drop you a message. I currently have side mount brackets but can always change that do accommodate a base mounted seats.

Thanks

"They" is actually singular - is that an issue?

Sorry Howard, my mistake. No that’s probably more preferable to be honest. My daughter will be pleased her car seat still fits in the OEM passenger seat!

I’ll drop you a message on my lunch break. Thanks again.
