Seats

Post by autofetish »

Now not for the purest but I love them

It's all Guys fault after letting me sit in the orange monster !!

Plan is to polish to a mirror Finsh

They are 58 series kirkey with the sides cut down and modified at factory

Q. I'm making sub frames any advice as to seating position correct hight of bum and how close to pedals ???

Thanks Will

put it where you feel most comfortable. but that may not be as you just sit in the car but actually drive it. make the subframes adjustable because it may take a few miles to know where your're ideal position will be. passanger side isn't so critical so thats easy.

iv'e got the cheaper version for the S800, with seat covers though as they are a bit hard without :thumbright:

personal choice that I think, don’t think there’s any right or wrong, agree with Boz though, just positioning the seat and sitting in the car isn’t the same as getting in and driving a few miles, all I would say is when you’ve decided set the passenger seat the same otherwise they will look stoopid
