Ricks green TR6 Posted March 7, 2022 Report Share Posted March 7, 2022 Hi all, looking for new seats for my 6. I have the 70-72 US type with built in head rest at the minute which either need a complete overhaul or swapping for a new set. Just wondering if any members have a new/excellent quality set they are looking to sell? Have to be in black. thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Conradski Posted March 7, 2022 Report Share Posted March 7, 2022 Hi RIck, I can highly recommend Paul Bishop who supplied me with some refurb'd Mazda MX5 mk 2 seats - they look gorgeous and he trims in a similar style to the original CP seats. If you want his number PM me and I will send it on. I drove to his premises on the day of the big storms, from Wirral/Chester to WInchester. Conrad Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Worth it though..I bought some leather covered MX5 seats from Paul Bishop a few years ago..Not sure what he charges these days but I'm absolutely delighted with mine and what I paid for them...Highly recommended!

Roadrunner Paul Posted March 10, 2022 Report Share Posted March 10, 2022 Here's an example of Paul's work in the TR5. Tan with dark green piping to match the interior trim and body colours. He'll happily send you samples of the seat covering materials and piping if you contact him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Peter V W Posted March 10, 2022 Report Share Posted March 10, 2022 Hi Paul. Your car looks excellent. I should point out that the chrome mouldings have been mixed up and fixed to the wrong doors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roadrunner Paul Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Hi Peter Thanks for the compliment. I had no idea about the chrome ... nor presumably do many others, as you're the first to notice in 6 years of ownership! Mind you, I reckon the upward sweep at the end is good for some extra downforce at speed ..... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ricks green TR6 Posted March 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Thanks for all your recommendations for Paul Bishop, I got in touch and he’s doing me a nice full leather set for collection. Looking forward to getting them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DRD Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 I got my seats from him, they look great and very comfortable. Overall it works out cheaper than refurbing the original seats. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rcreweread Posted March 19, 2022 Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 If anyone is looking for a new set of Paul's seats, please get in touch as I may be able to help. Cheers Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mhossack Posted March 20, 2022 Report Share Posted March 20, 2022 Paul Bishop for me, worth every mile, and so comfortable compared to the old Triumph seats. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
