Sprint Interior Help

#1 Post by reneso » Tue Oct 25, 2005 7:50 pm

Right then<br>
I've been out of the Dolomite thing for about 12 years and have just come back.<br>
Bought a Sprint need to know 2 things if anyone can help.<br>
<br>
How wide are the sprint seats. I seem to remember that they are wider than fitted to the other models. I have a feeling my seats are not original. Any ideas???<br>
<br>
Secondly can anyone confirm that the sun visors on all sprints were white on both sides. <br>
<br>
Silly questions i know but its bugin me.<br>
<br>
Cheers Rene<br>

Welcome Rene,<br>
<br>
I'm no authority but I'm aware of three styles of seat all very similar width wise so far as I know. The basic model 1300 (& 1500 possibly) are quite thin backed and a couple of inches shorter in the back than the rest. They adjust forward and back only and have no pocket on the back. The early 1500HL and up got thicker and taller seats with pockets on the back, the drivers seat has up down adjustment at the front and rear. I've just measured a pair of these and they are about 575mm wide at the widest point on the base. The later 1500HL and up were basically the same but with headrests. All seats had tilt adjustment.<br>
<br>
There's been a discussion on seats frames that may help <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://p206.ezboard.com/fthetriumphdolo ... <!--EZCODE LINK END--><br>
