Bucket seats advice please.....

#1 Post by sprint95m »

Advice please....

Are these seats suitable for a Dolomite....?

(The listings' page says delivery is free to any Argos store but the actual listing doesn't mention this......)

Anyone have alternative classic style bucket seat suggestions....?




thanks,

They will fit. This company is maybe cheaper. When ordering as a trader there's some discount.

The alternative is the corbeau gt serie. These are look a likes of the '70 corbeau gt series and thus more period.

The Cobra RS seat is a nice seat, very comfy, larger than a standard Cobra classic seat, and the fabric is a good match for the Dolly interior. I'd go for it.
I have Corbeau's in my car and find them comfy too, but they are quite low, and narrow. Some passengers don't seem to fit all that well...

Recently, I bought a pair of seats from Demon Tweaks via eBay, using the collect at Argos option.
Using the Argos option means that delivery surcharge/won't post to Scotland/etc doesn't apply.
Taking advantage of an offer from Paypal I actually got £100 discount :D too!

The seats are so light that both were sent together in a single box (large box).


I would post a photo but I am keeping the well applied protective wrapping on them until I am ready to fit them.
