Checkout James' RUK restoration thread (I think it's RUK might be DTR) He adapted some MGF seats to fit on the original mounts fairly simply and easily. Not fancy seats, just ordinary cloth covered ones. Still more comfortable and supportive than stock Dolly seats. (which cripple my back in very short order) He later decided he didn't like them and gave them to me. I fitted them to the Carledo and quickly found they didn't quite suit me either in squab height or reach (I'm 6' James is about 5'8") but the way he'd engineered the conversion allowed me to redrill and alter only the convo bits till it DID suit me and now I love them! Don't know if you HAVE MGFs in NZ mind, or how common scrappers are to rob! But MG ZR seats are almost identical, I have obtained a pair of half leather ones to go in my Sprint, I was so impressed!
