Pete, I have a pair of black seats who may well be from a MX5 in my Vincent Hurricane, I won't keep them. Don't know if they are leather or not, sorry.

Hello Chris,

 

I have an extremely good pair of seat bought from Ken of Doretti fame, he sold me them at an extremely fair price, ( nice bloke too ) and I have fitted them into my De Tomaso.

 

They fit well but a nice black leather set would be nice!!!!!

Quite happy to post pictures, but the file size will not upload on here, its too large.

 

They came from a limited edition Jap MX5 that had really HIGH end leather trimming, the guy I bought them from was a leading light in MX5 circles and said never seen them from a UK based MX5.

 

Quality of leather would not be out of place in a Rolls Canardly !!!

KOB -

 

The seats sound gorgeous - would love to see a photo,

just out of interest.

 

But - without a photo, I can't see anyone making a

commitment to buy.

If the image size is too large, invite prospective buyers

to PM you with their email address.

 

Tom's shadow blue seats sound lovely as well - IMO

black trim is just too boring.

Wel there another way t,see em

pic of here what they look like, and then say

 

As there quite a few variations of MX5 seats

high backs, separate head rests,, adjustable head rests, adjustable bolsters, heated ,leather, cloth, plastic

 

the seat in, 2 nd row 4 th pic

is my olde GT seats against the MX high backs I got in noo give some indicationee of size,shape

Click link on visit page, and it,ll give measurements too.

 

Ive seen a few in TRs, and they fit perfect

better than in a Spitty / GT

 

and a head rest so yer neck wont snap wen some one rear ends ye!!

they are the MK2.5 high backs

and really need t,check on heights

 

as thee,s seats are v v high

higher than the adjustable head rest type

 

and, ina GT,wid oot any roof lining as such, they touch the roof,or the weft of fabric

 

ona Spitty,they would fould the soft top

 

So, better check height, as ye may find that yer roof cant go up or doon

 

Look at the link I bunged up, measurements are there

or here

And, the seat base is HARD, you sit on them, not in them

thee,s are a totally diff annimal to the other seats

 

And, if yer MK1 Arsche End is lets say, got a bit of ..Padding on it,

they ye will be sitting along way upI took

 

3 inch oot of the base foam, see pic

I got no much Arsche padding, but me heed was just touching roof

and I was looking at the screen top,not the middle

 

One bloke woe has a bit of padding in the Arsche end, had to sit wid his neck bent

at a v v jaunty angle,

 

Ye been warned, really really need to check

Butt,follow me mods, an they are v v comfy wid plenty of side support

and a real good looker too

Your Right Alan, my Pantera trim was ALL black and like a mausoleum so I changed some for a lighter colour also fitted

MX5 cloth seats, with separate headrests which personally I prefer.
